I was talking to two enthusiasts today, neither of them were aware of it.

One of them had bought a bargain only to find out it wasn't a bargain at all - tax not withstanding it also had a broken spring and rotten rear arms.

I certainly wasn't !!! I thought it was only Diesels that it affected

I thought the seller was just being nice leaving the sale date till the end of the month so I didn't have to fork out for tax straight away !!!

Looking back, he probably knew I'd walk away after finding out the rates........which I would have !

Oh well.......

Has anyone looked at this or know anything about it's history, I'm interested but when I rang the chap was rather unhelpful, it has no service history and is priced for what it is apparently. I'm not sure I want to risk driving 100 miles home without knowing the state of the cambelts.
