Found this website along with the photos of when they modified the car to operate. This is probably better suited for the X300 section but I reckon other X308 people would enjoy it just as I did. note the small link at the bottom of the page to proceed on to further pages

David Marks Garages - Daimler Corsica Project, Part 1

 

Dave know's his stuff, one of the tech guys for the JEC, and a nice helpful guy too.

The Corsica should have been built to order. I liked the trans/floor/door work. Made me think a 308 coupe was possible....

 

If you go through all 5 pages it is amazing at all the work it took to bring this car to full function.

Wonderful!

Sean B, you are a bad man, putting evil thoughts in my head. Read your comment about a 308 coupe and thought what a good idea, I mean how hard can it be???
you only have to shorten the rear doors, lengthen the front doors, move the B pillar, have new side glass custom made, make the front seats tilt.( maybe XK8 seats will fit and work ) Oh wait forgot about all the custom trim panels for the doors, tread plates etc... Would the central locking still work with only 2 doors? suppose you could leave the rears still fitted... then I assume it would have to go for an SVA test! So only 2/3 years of weekends then. She who must be obeyed already thinks I prefer the XJR to her. Just out of curiosity do you know of anyone who does custom curved glass?

 

The glass was the dealbreaker, £4000 was my best quote.
