I hope so as the car is very clean and passed MOT without even an advisory. Luckily a friend has sourced a supposed good ready skimmed head for very little. If it turns out good it will be fixed next week. :)

Well I was warned but didn't listen. My landy started to misfire ever so slightly for about 15miles then the temp guage took off to top.

Yeah, i'm expecting some costs LOL but hey its all part of the experience!!!
I think I may have a VSC away as its a bit tight feeling when trying to park into spaces and has a cluck when turning over bumpy ground (suspect diff bearings or ball joints). I think spare car could come in handy so...

Hi guys,
I've just purchased a hunter green 2001 plate 1.8ES and have a couple of questions. I know it has the K for Kettle engine but it was a good price, well spec'd and clean. Anyway
