Great to see you again yesterday Jim, meet the cat and have a good natter. A thoroughly enjoyable afternoon was had by all. Pete managed to get RUNN back to my house without crashing it, and I had a great journey back down the M1, round the M25 and up the M40 in Rattiva.CitroJim wrote:Rattiva II has today returned to her former owner Activa Mike and a text message just received suggests he's happy with her
I enjoyed a very good rapport with this car and I hope Mike will be as happy. The 110 HDi Exclusive is a brilliant car and no doubt about it.

I have one in hand now (ex a 2.1) for a nominal price.CitroJim wrote: She also needs a new expansion tank as the present one is split.
I have now refitted the slightly rusted genuine Citroen silencer, and it is much quieter. On the genuine box, the inlet baffle tube goes most of the length of the box, but is angled down so that it does not meet the outlet baffle pipes (which seem a bit shorter). I can't see what else is in there.CitroJim wrote: I have a new back box all ready to fit. Interestingly, Mike fitted an identical new back box to his new V6 and found it a tad noisy. I'd noted in the past that the new back box fitted to my Old V6, now Paul's (pavlosv6) was similarly a bit louder. Investigation shows all three back boxes have a manufacturing fault whereby one tailpipe is open directly to the inlet and is not baffled, only wrapped in rockwool around a perforated pipe. The standard (quiet) back box is much more heavily baffled on both tailpipes.

I am sure she has many more miles in her, I just couldn't pass up the switch to an identical car with half the miles, particularly for the long drives on the autoroute.CitroJim wrote: Once quietened down and serviced she'll be my new daily driver...
I must apologise again for delivering her in such an appalling state, but I just forgot to stop at the car wash on the way to yours.CitroJim wrote: When I've washed her Mark She'll scrub up well I reckon...
