All minor problems considering the car... and I've offered to come and help you sort them out, if you had a bit of patience

Seriously, you're getting like me - I was getting through cars like hot cakes until I found one I REALLY liked....

Don't take any less than what you paid for it... it's EASILY worth that, IMO

As I said, an S reg oil cooler failure Elite just like yours went for £1000 the other day!

But.. if Jaime is offering you £500 cash, AND his MV6, you should probably accept

In his dreams!  Despite the MV6's annoying (and as yet unknown) coolant leak, I wouldn't even consider a straight swap....

Do you want me to come and have a crawl over / under / around your car, to try and locate this pesky leak?

We (M_DTM and I) thought we'd found it (top rad hose), but replacement hasn't resolved, so back to square one  .  Not much that side of engine it could be....

Hmmm... it's not going out the exhaust, is it?  [smiley=evil.gif]

No unless there is a break great hole in the downpipe - you can see evidence of the coolant from that side of block, and sprayed back from there...

I hope it's not the same prob I had with Max's car

I hope it's not the same prob I had with Max's car  

Could be, or could be worse....

Anyway, we've hijacked Tunnie's thread...

Yes we have, but I'm sure he won't mind

Either way, the offer is there if you need a hand, Major / Minor

Going back on track, I must agree that there are too many conmen out there on ebay

Agreed.

I was lucky last time with my eBay sale, i just want the estate gone as soon as possible really

As said before, dont lose on it Mark. If you have decided you don't want / prefer the 2.2 - there is an easy scope to at least make your money back...

Apart from the little bits you mentioned, there's nothing else worrying you with it, is there? As said before, if you have any problems I will be happy to help you sort them out

[MaxV6]

can i also remind you that there are bits for it sitting in my shed....   which i've already tried to persuade you to take away

(James can tell you the history of the compressor... it came off one of his)

and the aerial is a full mounting replacement, and whip, +, enough cable to join properly (possibly ALL the cable memory fails me right now)

and the outside temp sensor is knocking around somewhere.

you checked all the connections on the heated seats??   they worked when I was last using it....   in the front at least... no idea about  the rear ones.   I know this coz it was bastard cold...  and the heated seat was a god send!

which is a thought....  are the rear heat pads the same as the front ones??   and can they be swapped over if they are?

that would at least make it more comfortable, and give you less possibility of comeback on the Fleabay addie...

I did kind of half mention it to the wife....    lets just say , i'm not "on a promise" tonight , merely for suggesting it as a concept/...

[tunnie]

you still have first refusal max  

I've made my mind up, my 2.2 is far more enjoyable to drive for me.
