Got so wee weed off with negative reports on my solar charger that I ordered and took delivery of an 096 Varta Silver Dynamic Car Battery £62 from Tayna with 5 yr warranty, together with a CTEK MXS 3.8 12V Charger and Conditioner £44.97 also 5 yr guarantee.

What I did with my Rover 75 today
The weather's miserable. Went outside to the car and looked at it. Felt cheered up. Reading the forecast, I'll do the same tomorrow I think. TC |

Took all of my induction parts to work and used the parts washer to clean them out (hoses, inlet manifold, intercooler etc.)
Must of got 1/2 pint of oily crud out of them, I now think I need to keep an eye on the turbo... changes injector 4 for one I got from a trader here. the old one was glazed... Changed all of the nose bolts for Stainless cap heads...

Fitted new Philips Blue Vision Ultra front sidelights, so much brighter than the candles they replaced and a much nicer match to the Xenons.
