My new toy!!!!!!!!!
« on: 18 May 2008, 19:23:22 »

I picked up my nice new toy yesterday. I have bought a 1998 S reg MV6 estate. And its a manual!
The bodywork needs a little attention. the wheels are in great nick, two of them are brand new.
Thanks to Jaime for his tech 2 work on the way home.

Jimbob has done some servicing today,
Changed the oil and coolant, unblocked the scuttle drain, blocked off the egr, and stuck in my nice new tax disk holder and rear window logo  :D
Needs some new wiper blades, a brake service and a crank sensor now, a breather clean, fuel filter and spark plugs.
Oh, and remove the bloody shin breaker  >:(

All i need now is to keep hold of my driving license! ::) ::)  ::)

A tidy car as well, a few chips around, but has that not uncommon nasty patch on tailgate.  Engine sounded fine, and all onboard systems looked good.  Get Jimbob to keep an eye on if that 19 comes back, but as you have 2 V6's now, I'd keep a spare handy anyway.

Stick a paperclip up it, see if that 19 has come back.  19s tend not to bring on EML.
