Thanks to a fellow forum member car is great on first impressions. It has done 140K but only 50K in the last 11 years. The car was serviced regularly until 100,000 miles but only once since then. The timing belt was changed 40,000 miles ago. I am going to book her in for a service and new cam belt. Also on full lock there is a ‘bouncing’ back and forth of the steering wheel and a noise, I am thinking this could be a CV joint so I will get the garage to look at that as well. Is there anything else mechanical I should be looking at as a general health check? Once these things are sorted I will be looking to make a few changes, egg crate grill, clear indicators and a MBC for starters. I’ll post some pics of the old girl over the weekend. Thanks in advance!
