I think you will find, dear sir, that the precise words were ' Up yours petrol head'.

No, seriously, I am looking for something with a challenge. An autobox change is possible, but I fancy something else. Like a top end rebuild, or another crashed one or something to get my teeth into.

Incidentally...... found this 'interesting' MV6 on ebay. I am not interested in it, but can anyone spot what is wrong?

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=230088410428&sspagename=ADME:L:RTQ:UK:1

OK, ended now anyway. here is what I found interesting....
2.5 MV6?
Tourer Wheels
Tourer Spoiler

Guy confirmed to me that log book sasy MV6. Were they not all 3.0s?

And single exhaust

I thought MV6 were '98 onwards?


edit: just relooked, listing ended due to error - relisted as tourer!

All seems to be there

Personally I don't find the blue font on all the pages very readable, maybe fine tune that a little?

Not much to worry about if thats the biggest thing I can find.

End of day, noone is going to be reading a lot on there, so it doesnt matter that much, eg its a get the info and go site, not like here with browse all day

Not knocking you mate, when the kids demand......
Remeber as a kid someone bought me a panini album, I dutifully went out and bought my 1st pack of cards, stuck em in the book, and thought break that, ive better things to spend my pocket money on!
And packs were 10p then, and you got bubblegum as well iirc, bet they are somewhat more now!

Isn't there an address why you can buy your last few cards from?

There used to in the old days of panini football cards.

Tried ebay?

In that case, do it on a push bike, save a fortune and get fit, you may be away an extra week though.

It was Buckley Tyres!

Didn't know they could do it, noticed 4 wheel alignment on their website, so rang up and asked about full geometry
Prices on the phone were dearer than I paid - £45
3 out the 4 were adjusted, car handles so much better and doesnt ditch find anymore

very much doubt it is up to Tony's standard, but all most the boxes on his screen were red when he started, green when he finished.
certainly better than nothing.

Cost me £22.90!!!!

Right, the MV6 is booked in for 4 new continental's on wednesday, Thanks for the advice.

Had the CDX Full geometry'd today, so much better!
Also had em check and (was going to be reseal the tyres) as the all lose pressure.

However

3 out the 4 had multiple punctures, 2 unrepairable, so its new tyres again (8 in a week is gonna kill me)

So recommendations and stay aways for a 2.2 Saloon please (16")
