Time to move on

Post by strummer » Wed Aug 02, 2017 9:05 pm

After 6 years and 40,000 miles together my 3.0 petrol has gone.Been a great car and the longest I have kept a a car.Always reliable,great drive and loads of room for a family.Once you realise the Engine/Trans Failsafe are often fairly minor issues like a faulty MAF or throttle body you become a little less worried when she bongs at you.This forum is a great resource so thanks to all who have chipped in with advice over the years. :)
