Whats your daily snotter
Discussion
I've just given in trying to use the Tvr as a daily and picked this baby up for £50.
Failed it's mot on wiper blades, owned by an old boy for 10 years, it's clean as a whistle, everything works and it's even like a van with the rear seats down. Dogs bks for a snotter. Oh it's even fully serviced and upto date.
I'm really chuffed mainly so I can really get down and dirty with the Chimeara without having to do stuff on a time scale? It's supposed to be fun working on the Tvr.

'07 Discovery TDV6. Had it from new, 168,000 miles, cam belt tension pulley failed at 165,000 and destroyed engine. Landrover came up trumps & paid 75% of all parts & labour for full rebuild. Waiting for the new one to come out next year & if it fits the bill I'll have one, well I would now, wouldn't I !!
A friend of mine had a similar problem and LandRover put a spanking new lump in for him, top company.
He'd put well over 150,000 miles on it pulling trailers but they still put it right for Him.
Tell you what, I thought I got a bargain when I got my Chimaera but this little 306 is a peach boys, Im gonna put a big bore hahahah, exhaust on her, i had a run in the little thing, shocks are a million times better than my GGP's on the Tiv,,,,,,,, well at 20 mph at least.
I've got access to loads of motors but I like this one, it's sort of like going back to my first car, I feel young in it, mad.

Good point, looks like we will have to be a 4 car family and keep the Carina when the Alfa arrives Gassing Station | Chimaera | Top of Page | What's New | My Stuff
