Hi guys, just got back from Hereford after picking up the above. Been looking out for one for a while now after a friend acquired one recently. My mate drove it back and said it drives very well. Very responsive engine, brakes, steering, suspension all good, body work very very straight and paint work in excellent condition. Interior in excellent order also, just needs a good wet vac really. Was on ebay if anyone saw it, has even come with a 'private plate' D___ BMX. THE problem with it is the gearbox - it's noisey on start up when ticking over until you dip the clutch then the noise goes, strangely though after driving a few miles down the road, we stopped to put fuel in and it sat there on tick over with no noise at all?? Any how, i'll chuck a couple of pics up when i get chance.

cheers thumbsup

Sounds like the clutch release bearing is buggered?

Hi Chris, yeah, i think it's more clutch than gearbox, see my thread in 'transmission' for a better report.Thumbs up

Get a clutch and then get a stage 1 remap. Makes a lot of difference without any compromise. The wife's hdi has it and on a long run with no traffic I got 68mpg from it. On average it manages 55mpg and goes a lot better too.
