evening all,
just a quick question, as i said in earlier post im about to purchase my first p38 so i would like to ask, is there anybody here that lives near to plymouth who owns a rr that could possibly meet up and show me around the car, and show me where to look for usual faults on these vehicles and also just a general why and where about on the vehicle please.
thanks for reading
pasty

theres loads of info on here to look at.. but check the coolant, oil etc, make sure its got antifreeze not just water,, take it for a good test drive, make sure everything works especially the suspension, should be quick and smooth to change heights.any problems dont buy till you have checked them out properly. dont be in arush to buy the first thing you see, there are plenty out there

when you take it for a long test drive make sure the temp gauge needle doesn't go into the red zone.if it does it could have major problems with the engine.be very very careful.
