Well had the car for 2 months now and was time for its 12k mile service

Wasnt too bad.

Needed 2 new engine mounts (one was snapped and the oil return pipe was hitting the chasis!), new pads all round, 6 valves needed adjusting, new rad cap, new door sender unit (it was making the alarm think the door was open so killed the battery)and the oil tank needed the sump retapping as the thread had stripped.

Plus got a set of racing reds with full set up

final bill £2338

Not too bad, she sounds so much better now and I felt so much more confident driving her back as she was tramlining at all or crashing over the bumps (2 of the old shocks were leaking badly)
