I bought it cheap because it was advertised as having head gasket failure which as we all know is mis diagnosed sometimes, so I thought buy it fit an oil cooler and sell it making a few quid on the way. Just my luck head gaskey failure. So big job lots of money and no money in my pocket when I sell it :'(

How come it's so high at the back wheels? Why is there so much distance between the tyre and the arch?

I think it looks high at the back because the drive has quite a steep slope. My Elite next to it is the same ;)

Looks really nice, very clean inside and out. Pity about the head gasket, oh and the slush-o-matic box :P Fix those two and you'll have a belter of an MV6!

Well if you wanna swap... ::)

Mine could be doing with a refurb as the lacquer is struggling in a few places, but if you decide to sell let me know, I quite fancy the look of the facelift alloys.

Really nice looking MV6. Shame about the head gasket failing.

I love those wheels and leather seats. Wish I had some in my Elite  :(
