knowing what i know I think this is a very fair price and JB has given a true description lt is vvirtually the one i gave him originally when started the transaction for his LY so in a way reflects my honesty as well if i had a spare garage would have kept it as my daily drive hh

Had a quick drive of it today - Unbelievable! Drives spot on, totally spot on. Brakes/steering/suspension all feel fresh. Also feels noticeably looser n the engine department than my LY did. Benefit of the miles I guess its run in properly!

for my two pence worth of knowledge

 

 as It has been asked on the forum no chains been done but

 

2 mots ago I asked PSR to do a health check on bits like this and they confirmed then, that all was ok

 

Speaking to JJJ who (IMO) has good knowledge on stuff like this, there havent been many known chains go so why replace when all is well, certainly no chattering in my ownership

 

As for the rad, (its in the info I supplied so nothing new knowledge that wasnt known between buyer and seller and future buyer), at last but 1 mot the rad was blown and it had a new replacement fitted free!

Somethng like the chains don't tend I just let go out of the blue. They seem to make a rattling noise and tap loud on start up till warm. Alao this car being a 52 it will have the later revised kit that won't clog up the oil port. Which is one of the reasons the chains let go.
