Jondb:
so best left alone really then! thats good to know it ll be in use for towing later this year.... "just got my towbar s/h for 11 quid with electrics"

Ahem, sorry about that Jondb you'd have got it for 99p if I hadn't slapped 10 sobs down in the last 8 seconds, I'd assumed someone was just going to take it to henry orchard's

The B230K comes with the M90L or (if very very late) L2 with the REALLY deep first and second, so towing should be easy. If it's a saloon you should have a 3:31 axle and maybe a locker. If it's the estate it will be a 3:54 non-locker.

Are you thinking of the B230FK LPT? The B230K was a carb'd engine.
