As said, this is a re-post, and it's not a 3.2, I think you'll find this has seven and a half litres of Vauxhalls finest v6 engine(s)!

I'm just about to go and have a good look over my new purchase to see exactly what sort of condition she is in, this will be the first chance I've had since getting it back home on Saturday.
She's not been run for a good few months but I'd like to try and get the engine started, just out of curiosity...
Hopefully I'll be able to afford to put fuel in this one!

It fired up almost straight away but is making a heavy knocking sound from the passenger side head, and it's running very lumpy.
Also there is slight damage all down the drivers side of the car, this wasn't mentioned in the auction as the owner "has been driving it for a few years in that condition and it's never bothered him"!

I was going to fix/replace the engine and keep the car to see how I got on with the cost of running it with the l.p.g.
Now I'm thinking I would be better off stripping out the l.p.g. system and getting back behind the wheel of an Mv6 saloon...
