Thanks for the quick reply. I'm in Gloucester, too far away and I can't make it till the weekend anyway!

PETCLUB!Alo!
That's about 3 miles from me. It's an industrialised area running bt t'river.
Be happy to help if I can (note, I'm not a mechanic! However, nearby I have a friendly mechanic/MOT Tester/Car restoer who may be willing to help).
Paul above would be a better bet for a techy opinion as he's an engineer.
Happy to take you out in mine for comparison etc. Dave

I'm confused now 
I thought it was S1M VP, who I now notice is called Paul who went to have a look at the car for me. But now your asking me what sort of car it is, so maybe it wasn't you! Also when I spoke to [i]you on[/b] on the phone, I called you [b]Matt[b]. So who is the Phantom Car Inspector from Leicester? Whoever you are, Many thanks, the car's being delivered tomorrow, and I haven't even seen it yet 
Still....£850 and that includes a brand new, with reciept and guarantee, £450 JVC Double Din CD unit
so wish me luck
Oh, this is it.....

MYstery solved - Cheers Matt, Hopefully just a re-gas then. Yes they're a nice underated car, and a good 2nd Car for Cerb owners, pretty rare, only 633 bough into the UK, and as an aside, the only (as far as I know) V6 FWD car because they are also pretty rare and cheap as chips fpr some reason, that has the engine mounted longtidinally.
Thanks again,
PS Apologies for a 'Nothing to do with Cerbera's' thread.

Is that a Legend?
I had the old 2.7 V6 version, was a great warhorse, eventually 'retiring' it with 260K on the clock, there was a nasty knock coming from the engine but everything else worked from the air con to the heated mirrors.
Was the same engine that Rover 'stole' for the 827 so loads of spares were available.
Mine looked just like this:
Not the most elegant of designs.
Could lose the spoiler on the one in your pic, bit too chav.

It seems fine Matt, all the toys, and theres lots of them, work, although you need a degree in Electronics to work out how to use the Stereo - I was initially worried the Head Gasket had blown because I can't get the heater to blow hot air in. But had this checked and HG is fine, so a new Thermostat will be fitted soon to try and get some warmth in the cabin.
