Hi,

I bought a 440 Li model M reg off eBay last week for £190 with 107,000 miles, the car is a little gem except for starting.

It just won't keep running I have to turn it over a few times and give It some high revs then It stays running on tickover ok, But I when I start to drive it kangaroos a few times then it stops and drive normal after a few mins of driving.

Anyone know what causes this? I thought about the oxygen sensor.
