Looks like a tidy example, these are known for cracking exhaust manifolds and for sticking throttle bodies, the throttle bodies are horrible to remove to clean them on the SC straight six lumps though they do pull really well for a big car.

Yup and it still works, as do the folding wing mirrors, not bad for a 15 year old car :y

Yes there is an area which was highlighted in the MOT, 1st skin already gone.  I need to treat what's left and see if it needs a patch repair.  I think I see a welding course on the horizon  ;D ;D

I like those cars..  :y 
 
but problem is my citizens like them also..  even a 20 year old jag costs much more than an omega..
 
and parts are either non-existent or astronomic..  :-\

Don't bother with Teilo for the tank... He has to order from elsewhere so probably easier to source yourself ;)

As for bigger Vap... If you're going to upgrade the pulleys you're probably looking at a twin vap setup anyway :-\
