    Not much help to you I know, but this reminds me of every oil filter I've ever bought for the FL1 being supplied with a copper washer that does not fit the sump plug. I've got twelve of them now.

    Yeah, I've been asked if I'd sell mine by a couple of eastern Europeans I know over the years to do exactly that. Apparently it's a "relatively" straight forward conversion.

    The oil cooler went on mine a few years ago too. I don't think it's one of the coolers though as it really doesn't appear like there is any oil in the coolant. My slight worry is combustion stuff obviously. There is a dark residue in the bottom...

    The tax bracket is the Achilles Heal I would say. Everything else sounds good. A quick Auto Trader search shows six examples with less than 70k miles on ranging from £2650 to £5000 although only two of those are TD4s, and I can't imagine many...

    Me and Nodge did the rear on my FL1, not the same I know, but I managed to get a reasonable second hand one and had it shot blasted and professionally painted. Subframe was £100 from ebay and the blast and paint was £80. That might be an option...

    I can't complain. It served it's purpose and I only paid £200 for it and the scrappy said they'd give me that for it so with one abs sensor, some wiper blades and two second hand tyres it's been cheap motoring for the year. It was a great little...

    Do you have very large tree or trees. You could be seen as a predator and they're trying to scare you off. Here is my Barrister Sir Reginald Fortisque-Smythe KC to offer advice for a fee.
