Hi all,
Firstly, thanks for all the input about my broken 300TDi.... In the end it was the radiator (fins had gone AWOL!) that caused the overheating. Melted the 2 and 3 pistons and the head so ended up costing me a fortune.
Anyway, I'm gonna bite the bullet and buy a newer model and I'd like some 'pointers'.
I'm thinking of a 1999/2000 TD5, but may consider a V8 with an LPG conversion.
Is there anything I need to look out for?
Any advice gratefully recieved
Giles
