Now I've got my 75, the first thing that I'll need to think about doing is the timing belt - not sure when it was last done (if ever! ). Is it fairly straight forward on the V6? I'm assuming if it lets go then we're in a valves/piston interface situation?
Where's the best place to buy spare parts? Is there a workshop manual that I can get hold of?
Cheers

EB Spares are great- Kevin will keep you right.
The V6 is easy to change a belt on. Just make sure no oil leaks from the £140 hydraulic tensioner or that the belt does not slap against the belt covers at 1700rpm with a cold engine (tensioner again).
