I will be breaking it, hope to get home tomorrow night.

When I went to look it over last week it had two pre facelift MV6 wheels on the front, (one of the late facelift Elite wheels had been binned due to a crack) the cam belt has done 75,000 miles  :o :o cam covers leak like I have never seen and 195,000 on the clock. lots of good bits on it still, and the NCDC2013 and CID will be going in my MV6. Heated front seats will be going in my Elite estate.

I'll know more after I get it home tomorrow, but the exhaust is said to be s/steel and the mirror looks good, I'll know more about the box tomorrow  :y I'll put a post up in the parts for sale as soon as I have a good look.

Elite is now on my drive and she was missing on number one cylinder due to plug wells full of oil, it need new disc and pads all round, cam belt and water pump, cam cover seals, breather clean, new track rods, wish bones, steering idler, drop links, rear track rods.

It's had the same cam belt for 75,000 miles
The last service was 38,000 miles ago
Not tested the coolant or brake fluid yet
Car has done 195,000 miles

As said before, I got hold of this car for parts so will start the list with prices in the parts section tomorrow when I get home from work.
