All sounds nice till I read 'bubbles in coolant' and then it's "Awooga Awooga" In reality this car is spares or repair. In which case, despite it's single owner heritage and the work carried out I think your asking price is a 'tad' optimistic I'm afraid!

Just out of interest, how much is your typical garage price to get a headgasket on one of these done?

Additional info from seller
The coolant bubbles appeared 2 1/2 years/8000 miles ago after a leaking water pump was replaced. It may be head gasket, but it's no problem on a long run, and it has easily passed MOT emissions test twice since. My Haynes manual indicates it should have a heater bleedscrew but I can't find it!
Should have mentioned recent new handbrake cables. It's had only Miller XFE semisynthetic oil from new, changed every 6000.
The PAS problem is almost certainly stickiness in the flow distributor, which I overhauled with new Viton O rings recently.

Are the house prices near you expensive? Only if they're resonable I'll be down there in a shot if you can get £350 odd a tonne for scrap.jock wrote:Street Legal, economical, MOT to April, Tax to Oct 2010 is worth £174.
