He is not far from Portsmouth and may be able to help.

Good luck with it.

Try Mike at Check out MJSAUTOANDMARINE.CO.UK

Highly reccomended by Flying Banana see gist of previous post below.

Mike has looked after my cars for the last 5 years. A few people on here have used him.

Off topic but £950-00 was transferred last night. She's doing fine thank you, tough old battle though.

With thanks to all those who helped to source and fit a crankshaft pulley in less than 12 hours. The members of this forum are a real credit. Could not have done it without your help. Pulley fitted and working although it does sound a bit tappety might just need bedding in? But it'll definitely last the holiday. Thanks everyone.

Checked the tyre pressures, the lights, unblocked one washer jet and fitted a pair of new wiper blades, and that concludes my pre mot checks.

Well it has covered a whole 280 miles since it's last test
