.....starter that is.

£50 ebay 'special', nearly brand new as the Range Rover is was fitted to was crashed two days after fitting it! (apparently)

My old one has been on it's last legs since Le Mans in June, so I thought it about time I changed it...

The new one is half the size and half the weight of my original yikes

It took nearly 2 hours to get the fat old bd out banghead and only 20 Min's to get the new-un in!

Needless to say the car is now much faster with all that weight shed wink



Also while I was under the car I found that one of my clutch slave cylinder retaining bolts had vanished yikes

Don't really know why I have posted this, just rather pleased with my acquisition
