UPDATE: She was actually registered in January 2002. Last Motd late 2019 and covered 3k since so looks like 4-5 years off the road. Last V5 change 2012.
Quick Update. Still NO KEYS or V5. Today with the help of Richard we had her running. Ignition housing broken to allow steering to turn. We entered the EKA code through a Nanocom and with some fuel she fired up and ran up to temperature fine with no oil leaks. She is running slightly off with one lambda sensor showing in fault. No warning lights on dash. Radio and sat nav work fine and selects gears and air suspension seems to be good. All 4 air bags seem 'new' prior to parking up as well as the front tyres have never been used whatsoever but are 2017. A very basic guide to getting running under her own power. Replace BECM & ECU + keys. New rear brake pipe as it's split and a lambda sensor and battery. Fix steering column. Still £1500. No silly questions or time wasting please. She certainly can be saved but will need time and money. Great project and well worth saving.

Thanks Richard, yes Clarion Services no longer exists, however their only employee who new well how to work on the Diversity radio has moved to OEM services. Circa £100 for a code delete, new LED bulbs to protect screen and an AUX cable installed. Great value in my opinion.
I have a Clarion Diversity radio with a GOOD SCREEN, but sadly no code.... I used to use Clarion Services UK to service, repair and replace bulbs but it looks like they no longer exist. Is there another company out there that can do work on these radios, especially finding codes? Many thanks
I'm not convinced.my restoration budget can stretch that far. Yes it's the correct badge. Thanks for recommendation.
I'm just completing a minor restoration on my 30th Anniversary before putting her up for sale. She is great condition, sensible / low owners and mileage but sadly missing her rear "30th Anniversary Edition" boot badge. If anyone has one lying around please let me know.
When covering the sunroof panel only fold over the front and rear ends, just cut off the sides along the board otherwise it will be to thick to go in guides. When overlapping at the front and rear I use lots of material to make sure it will never come unstuck.
I do it a slightly different way. The cassette is held in by 6 bolts. I put the fwd to seats as far back as possible, upright and headrests up as high as they can go. Loosen the front two bolts a little and remove the rear four. This allows the cassette to drop down and not have to disconnect the drain pipes electrics etc. At the rear of the guides there are two white V shaped clips the need to be removed to stop the board going back. I also unbolt one runner at the rear (Phillips screw X2) with a little gentle force it does pop out and sometimes a 45degree turn. I use AS trim material which is thicker so don't bother putting those funny four fiddly springs back. Good luck.
On sale today, best offers over £1500
Not all Holland & Holland's registered new as H&H. About 50% registered as HSE Autos. I've kept a close register of them over the years and have located around 40.
It's a few years since I posted this topic and again I find myself needing a diversity code. Anyone figured it out?
The last update discs that are available and compatible with the P38 systems are 2014/15. So not ridiculously outdate.
I'm afraid my Holland & Holland doesn't warrant such expense. I'd be interested to see what they would recommend / charge though.
That's exactly what I wanted to hear. Many thanks, I'll keep you updated on my progress. I may just do the centre console as this has faded the most and easy to remove.
The Holland & Holland has a mat finish so certainly don't want to turn it to gloss Shellac.
Linseed / Teak was certainly more what I was thinking of.
Hoping to find someone who has already tried this.
Any thoughts of a quick and cheap way to put some life back in the wood. Can I use teak oil?
They are both amazing at what they do but likewise I'm keen to see how they get on with a P38. It's rare to have factory sat nav and did you spot the rear sun blinds!
Many thanks for above info, I've been to LR Main Dealer and they said they do not keep service information on record for cars this old. It looks as if the first owner had the accident but potentially repaired the car himself. I'm hoping to find someone who knows it.
Dear All, I've just purchased a genuine Holland & Holland blind on ebay and was pleasantly surprised when it turned up. Genuine low mileage and complete. But sadly no service history or any paperwork whatsoever, nothing. It's going to be a relatively simple restoration project and will be up for sale once complete. The only question I have is does anyone know of it's previous owners / history? Current plate X707POF and previously W7JPH from new until 2016. I'd be interested to here from old owners. Philip
