Ah, so it was the turbo then.

Glad you're getting it sorted and have some extra goodies to sort too cool


Yes it was, so I was happy with that

Feared it may have been piston rings.
And I've heard this isn't a cheap fix!

Once it's all done il post some photos smile

Finally getting round to posting a few pics of the coupe and a little update of work I've had carried out

Cambelt! The one thing I was most worried about so thanks to JBT for that

I've had a few goodies from Nigel who so far has helped me out massively so a big thank you to you

passenger side fog light handbrake console and centre console, standard leathers, coolant tank and cap, a few other bits and bobs can't remember now, there's been a few

New tyres, new battery, brakes on the rear, brake cables plus a full service, there is more but my memory is letting me down (been a long day)

Unfortunately I've had to take the car off the road for the time being

Had a coolant hose split on me so back to see Nigel on Saturday to get some replacements sorted, hopefully have it back on the road for Stanford Hall in June, which shouldn't be a problem

Slowly but surely getting the car to where I want it to be, still putting a huge smile on my face every time I take it out for a drive!
