No prob ;) Same colour as the MV6 sat on my drive with a broken cambelt :y

[edit]to add - Check the black sticker on the left post in the drivers door, it should say Z20H in the bottom left corner ;)[/edit]

17k, just under 2 years. On dismantling it was the bolt holding the top idler between the 2 banks that had snapped. Best guess it that it wasn't tightened properly by the garage that fitted the belt. Day of truth today as I'm fitting an old belt to see if it turns over by hand.
