Uncle Melvyn is marketing this particular screen that Steve needs for £85.00 laminated without the surround or heating elements they had demisters at this time.

Except that Steves car will be a 10 stud screen.

Probably this one then at £94.00. He seems to have them all.

A lot cheaper than the replacements for my Sport were for sure about £950 complete with a frame you don't need wink ,

The argument for only selling the complete screen and frame was that it is very easy to damage the glass when replacing it. I've still got my old cracked screen and frame from my 4/4......kept to remind me that it cost me £8000. I think it's covered in spaniel saliva!
One day I'll try taking it apart to see just how easy or difficult it is to change the glass.

John is that £8000/- for the mog and not the screen or should it read £800/-.
A mate in Northumberland with a +8 had his screen off stood against the wall in the garage . On pulling his double garage door down it broke and fell on his Citroen roof . He was full of hell stormed around the garage banged into the upright screen and "timber" it fell on the floor and broke. Not a happy lad, being as his estate had a few garages broken into. So he stopped up overnight and hid in his bushes with a thick coat and cap on it was early m/ing and dark . He heard footsteps to his garage area then them go away down the road. He was off jumped on him and sent in several punches with a few strong words . He heard get off me you *&?@~}!|+$ I am the milkman. Well he had a Mog would you expect anything else but crazy3
