Slightly OT - but a bit in todays Daily Express (me mothers honest guv), said when buting a 5 year old car for about 5 grand (!) you should make sure its had its head gasket replaced.....
Who writes this drivel?
I mean, yes they go pop, but so long as you look after the car and change the coolant / make sure the rad isnt clogged etc.....

To be fare to CMM they writer does sound realy quite positive about his purchase. He seems to understand that it'll need new spheres and, or anti sink valve thing( excuse me pleae Citroen with regular springs owner). Also going for a cam belt change aswell. On the whole it reads very well. Most surprised.

Yes, true. Although my guess is that Stuart McB has a subscription. Generally subscribers will have a copy of the magazine posted to their address, and will receive it before it's available in the shops.
