Im new here, and need a little help. The boot wont close on my P6 V8! It was fine before. It looks to be ok, but wont latch.
Thanks for the advice.. I sorted it eventually, but I dont really know how! (shy face)Hi! And welcome. We love photos, so why not post some?
Onto the boot, the P6 boot lid needs to be gently pushed closed by pressing down on the number plate plinth. Normally that will cause it to latch. If you try and slam it two things happen:
[1] The lid is very light being aluminium, so it tends to bounce instead of latching.
[2] Eventually the boot lid distorts and won't latch cleanly. You may have to adjust the latch and latch plate to align them again.
Try the light push first and see if its working ok. If not we can get you back where you want to be.
Welcome again!

Isn't that annoying when you dont find a smoking gun?Thanks for the advice.. I sorted it eventually, but I dont really know how! (shy face)
Did you accept it in the 20th or the 21st century? Apparently mine was meant to be Arden green.Welcome and enjoy.
Mine also had a "J" reg but it was a late Series 1 (August), was a bit annoyed when the second series came out shortly after delivery but after 52.5 years have learned to accept it.
Probably 21st when I realised there were less around than the second series! Though I would prefer the more plentiful round instruments.Did you accept it in the 20th or the 21st century? Apparently mine was meant to be Arden green.
