Red also has a transit van. With the worst interior possible this side of ramming your head up a cows arse.

He did however, email me to congratulate me on my superbly appointed interior, the efficient engine and the lovely roof rack.
Lies! Damned lies!

Mine is cow exterior beige, not interior damn you!

Like fishing with C4... Always guaranteed a result. biggrin

Clivey, the joke is I really want a snorkel, however, life has annoying habits of throwing issues in the way. hehe

Got the engined Terracleaned as well.
Did you see any improvements? (Apologies if you've already posted about it on Disco3, just had a quick look and couldn't find anything...)
Hi Dave. Just seen this, apologies for lack of reply.

So far i've run 3 tanks through the car. All regular Esso diesel.
The car has been on the Esso fuel from the station for last 6 months.

So far, i've noticed the engine revs better, it is smoother under load and going up a hill i use for a good Italian tune up, it pulled 10mph more at the top than it used to pre clean.

Fuel economy is a strange one as i got my roof rack fitted 5 days before i got it cleaned and the rack takes 2-3mpg off. But so far i'm sitting at 1 mpg more than pre clean.

My mates D3 has also been treated so using him as a more realistic mpg mark as his was always giving 20-22 under his driving so a boost would be good.
