Sort of... He is around but very busy this week. I have a sneaky feeling that he's got a representative from AC STAG over to try and get the certification sorted out :-/ :-/ Certainly due to visit around now :-/ :-/

Best bet is to try again next week... Don't bother with the answering service, just ring until you speak to him :y

Hi Steve,

Do you do enough miles to warrant the return on the upgrade?

I guess the old V6 must have settled down now if you are looking to put that many ££££ into it?

Cheers - Rob

Is the coolant properly plumbed ? If its plumbed in after the HBV it will cause this. :-/

now then rob,

the motor might be a bit of a shed ( bodywork wise ) but it runs like a dream nowdays  :y

its costing me 25 quid a week in petrol just to take our lass to work so running on gas, it should pay for itself in about a year  :y

by the end of this year, i should be discharged from this bankrupcy and back in business  :y

If i get a van, its 2 lots of insurance ( only had one car for 4 years now so i've lost all my old no claims )
2 lots of tax
and the mig will be sat around for 5/6 days a week  :(

the idea is to run this car into the ground over the next 2 or 3 years then strip it of all the good bits ( ive spent a fortune on it ), scrap the chassis and buy a younger one, re fit the gas to the new motor,  keeping any bits of the old car as spares  :y

the reciever is watching me so fitting it will keep me out of mischief for a few weeks and to be honest, i need to get the old gray matter working.
the bordem is killing me   ;D

anyway, they is only so much bloody decorating a man can do  :D :D :D
