I"m old, read quite slowly and deliberately yet still have to read, and reread, most of Simon's (Mandrake) posts a number of times in order to assimilate the content fully :-D
I can only think he has the ability to speed write leaving the speed reading to us lesser mortals.

:lol: :lol: Every one of Simon's posts is a dissertation. He must have his PHD in Xantia now surely..

I dream of a 'one liner' post from Simon..... One day it'll happen. Maybe...

Perhaps on the day the ravens leave the Tower...

Getting round some Donk jobs now. Oil and filter change right away. Air filter too. Engine can circulate now and has good blood.
I got my diesel head on again guys..........Mmmm, that reassuring burble. Hey guys, 25quid actually takes you somewhere with these baby's! The Vel needed a tenner just to start her up :shock:

These undertrays? Angle grinder and cut those seized fixings off. I will have to come up with something better than that!
Do you guys change the LDS fluid out? It is fully synthetic? Is there the same need to do this? Donk has 107k miles.

Yeah all gone Simon. It sold in a day. Would have been a good car for a member. Solid and clean, like a 5 year old car man. Those engines are soooo sweet.
Chain driven and all Denso and Hitachi fuel and engine electrics. Pity you never had a shot in it?
