The plan is to get the engine out and over to Turners wh ... |

| Sure, the code on the can is 7350. I went to a paint shop in Redditch who came out with a few cards and mixed it up. I'm pretty happy with it. Obviously tempered with a potentially terminal coolant is ... |

| At the weekend I managed to get 425 miles from a tank, which felt like a win, although still only about 20mpg….the vacuum based cruise control isn’t as efficient as a right foot, but better than n ... |

Just had the windscreen removed and refitted. The bond had failed. The guy doing it said he was surprised it hadn't fallen out.....which would account for the water ingress. Anyway, £140 all done.
