Welcome aboard and hang on it's a hell of a ride; good thing the GLW is on side hope she is more patient than mine :D
I know that impatient feeling Steve :angel:. A couple of minor issues (snapped front drive shaft twice and a broken fuel pump) and the car is deemed "unreliable". Funny part about it though my p38 has towed the "more reliable" cars owned by the kids more times than I care to remember. I think it's more to do with me doing the servicing at home instead of paying for a local mechanical workshop to do the servicing.Quote:

Previous owner included an EAS Kicker, so far I haven't needed it (touch wood).
I ended up putting in new radiator, water pump, fan hub and hoses - summer coming on up here in Qld, more so for peace of mind than actual necessity. Still works out as a pretty well priced limo!
Question ,
Did you go genuine or aftermarket ? Did you fit yourself ?
How muchy dinero ?
Bought all the bits from Roverlord (Thanks Mario :D) so mostly aftermarket.Quote:

Allowing for the belts and hoses that came with the car,(Changed them over, even though the existing ones looked ok, I always change any of them that get disturbed, and the old ones go in the "get-ya-home" box), total cost was around a grand.
Did all the work myself, with help from this site, and a few youtube vids. There's nothing too hard about it, just wanted to make sure the cooling system was properly bled, and the torque settings were right (I get a bit cagey around threads cut into alloy parts).
All seems to be going well - we've had a few warm days here already, and the gauge doesn't move at all :D, (touch wood).
