Just a quick update
Loving the car, had a few issues that I've mostly sorted but it's wonderful.
New tyres, replacement TV tuner, sat nav stopped working, new MOT, got a slight knocking from the internal fan, oil change done and oil leak sorted, boot leak sorted
Done over 3000 miles in it and I love it
Hoping to get to POL later in the year so see you there

Hi and a late welcome from Sweden!
Great cars we have.:-)
There is no substitute for cubic inches!
Just an update on the car. Toured up to Scotland, toured France around reims area. Now has over 121,000 on it and I love it and can't stop driving the thing. Had the car detailed by a mate of mine and it looked new once he had finished with the exception of the front bumper scuff. Now had that done. Had a couple of oil changes and will be replacing all spark plugs over the winter as I'm getting a misfire sometimes, diff and gearbox oil check and sort the clicking noise behind the dash. I know what it is but will sort when it's off road for the winter.

If the slight clicking noise is what you suspect to be the fan in your earlier post. Have another look. It may be the internal distribution valve for the heating. Mine does it and took me a while to work out what the noise was.

Could the misfire be vapour lock, When does the problem occur?
