    Update, since it's been a while. I ran out of time to do the work to get her through the MOT myself, mainly due to an unexpected house move. So I ended up paying a mechanic to do it. It was Not Cheap. He ran new brake lines front to back and replaced the exhaust and cat. Then later on the infamous EGR valve issue presented itself (and may have been responsible for the poor performance Dave experienced). Since then Nina (as my daughter named her) has motored along no bother. I occasionally get to drive her and she is an absolute hoot. Unfortunately daughter has a black box so I have to behave. Today I replaced the rear drivers side light cluster due to an unfortunate reversing incident.

    Ah, it does say that. Well, we'll see I suppose.

    Love it. The range is obviously an issue at times but Lisa and I just swap cars if I need to go a long way.
  19. Slartibartfast
    Ooh, I think it's finally being put up for sale. No pics yet but based on the mileage I'm willing to bet this is it. https://uk.rubrikkgroup.com/cars-vans-for-sale/Aec5KRxH7qWSi1tVQHO7H5kBAAABNQ

    You can see coolant bubbling out of the rad in the second photo. Garage looked it over and said with the coolant cap off it's moving with the motion of the cylinders, which in their book is a Bad Sign™

    I'm going to have a crack at it. I should be able to at least get the head off and sent for pressure testing without cocking it up.
  23. Slartibartfast
    Oh dear. Head gasket.
  24. Slartibartfast
    Phwoar.

    Yep, it's going tonight apparently https://www.shorehamvehicleauctions.com/details?listingid=d299e6b5-5a5f-429f-b44f-e65220b25a62

    Traded in on Saturday. Gutted, but had to face reality. He'll be going through Shoreham vehicle auctions some time pretty soon (maybe Monday) is anyone wants to try their luck.
  27. Slartibartfast
    Tempting, but I'm looking for something more boring.
  28. Slartibartfast
    Just an FYI to anyone interested, I'm putting this up for sale. It's running bob on now, but I can't afford the fuel bills any more. I love it very much but I've had my fun. Time to move it on. I'll be looking for £4000. Not shite money, I know.
  29. Slartibartfast
    Yeah, I just don't have the time to devote to the site any more and so I thought it would be best to hand over to someone who does. There will be an announcement soon I guess.
  30. Slartibartfast
    Done. The site will be a bit sluggish for a while post reboot, but it should settle down. Thanks for your patience, all.
