so its fukd?

Even i've seen that one!

That don't sound so dopey at all. Maybe Im being so for buying a P38 lol...

What do the Capacity Ah and CCA values mean on the batteries please? I assume the higher the better, also does the spec below sound like it will fit a P38, it's a Varta, any good? £99 + delivery. Specifications Voltage - 12V Capacity - 100Ah CCA(EN) - 830A Dimensions(mm) 353 x 175 x...

Thanks Gav. Well... I don't necessarily want a newer car, post 2001 due to the new car tax rules, im happier and quite like the p38 pre 2001. So I won't be too down if it never goes wrong and i've got £2500 in my bank and paying Brown less of my money ;-) I see so many high milers for sale...

Yeah lol, amazing what you find by searching this site ;)

That whirring noise couldnt be front prop u/j's could it ant? ;-) It was external to the engine casing as far as I could work out...

I hear yer, but what is decent? I am anal as they come for picking up the slightest sound when I buy a motor. All 3 that I have driven and heard running have not sounded perfect, why would they at 10 years + and 83k +, one was even a 155k miler, the first I looked at and someone I know at...

Well that sounds just like my bird anyway... ;)

lmao, it's in very nice condition and yes in the color i want but then there are many others... Way i see it is, they are all 10-14 years old and so they all come with some risks. It drove very very smooth. I think i'm gonna ring some local garages to the car and see if they'll do the HC test...

Even tho I can buy a warranty that covers HGF and many other engine failures for £68 per month... ok that's quite pricey, but for 1 year piece of mind, and i'm buying cash so no finance, it;s like £68 pcm for the car then, plus the usual running costs.

Hmmm lol...

Sounds like sound advice, I'll have a look, guess it comes down to the dimensions and the right amh?

Ok, my offer been turned down on the P38, but I have a little flex with an upper limit I'm willing to pay, taking into consideration the battery is knackered, the SRS warning light is on, Radio code is missing, no CD player and parcel shelf missing. All things I would want to put right asap...

well lol, I did do a search first... and I didnt see anything that obvious. But yeah a LZ newb who will create the odd echo at times... :doh:

Hi What's the recommended approach on batteries? Can see some ebay jobs for £50-60 but i'd imagine they last about an hour... What's the sort I should consider and whats the cost please? Thanks

How many cans of black spray will it take to change the color ;-) Im really after a black one lol... more gansta init :D

Ok ta. Out of interest, is the 4.0SE anymore or less reliable? Quite a few going in top condition for reasonable money, only thing is, I'll have in the back of mind that the 4.6HSE was what I was really after lol...

It seems the AA or RAC checks don't do Hydro Carbon tests, and really just test things anyone who knows how to look over a car would check for anyway, so at £350 for a check over, little to gain. So, where's the sorta place I can get a HC test please?
