As you can see I have spent a few penny's on the old girl but think she is worth it. It is my daily driver and do an average of 20 miles per day to work and back and picking up wifey from work,has only let me down once when bottom hose split due to being perished so changed all as a matter of course. When I purchased it, it had 101000 on the clock now it's up to 108000, had my fair share of EAS issues but many thanks to the members eventually got it sorted and now she rides like a dream. We have just purchased our first caravan and are off to Cornwall in a few weeks time so have got AA relay and recovery;),sure I won't need it. Any way won't bore you anymore just wanted to let you know about me and X198OGT 12 months on and to thank all for your help.

Not much of the original car left is there!!

Sounds like Triggers broom!!!:D

When they are right nothing beats them

Yes, your not wrong there, but to be fair a lot of it was preventative maintanace. Did a lot of research before purchasing mine and because it is my daily driver did not want any break downs and did all the work over a 8-10 month period, bit yes you are right when they are on song not a lot can beat them:D
