I'll give you a lift in the dog kennel if you want mate?
We'll probably end up in the pub for a pint and a plate of food afterwards anyway,
shame to miss out on a day out with the lads.
Well those would be the things to check, something's obviously bent when you hit the curb,
the only way you'll know is to get it on a lift and have a look.
No word of a lie, there's actually a gravel trap in the passenger foot well atm,
when I walk the dog down the park, my wellies and his leather football pick up all loads of small stones off the carpark. lol
Not really although it has taken a back seat, it's just in order to get an SL Wagon with decent mods i'm going to need around £4k,
the other alternative is a much older wagon for under £2k, but I don't want an old one,
I want a well maintained enthusiasts car with quality mods so I don't have to...
Alternator, Aux & Cam belt, dephaser, water pump, HT leads & sump gasket.
Should be good or another 5 years after that, I think I might start cleaning it more as well,
otherwise it's going to start rotting.
I know mine's a HT lead because when the upper inlet came off the other week,
we found one of them had white powder around the end, then within a day or so the eml started flashing intermittently.
It's at BTM now for a few hundred quids worth of work including new HT leads.
You're in Brum, just ring Fred at BTM, he's a trader on here and a decent bloke, he'll see you right.
Just don't pm him, he f*cking hates that.

^^^That price is for Aux & Cam belts, not...
Oh, it was the engine side of things I was interested in. :dapprove:
Didn't know they came with an original V6, thought it was a replacement for the stock engine.
It's the coolest UK car i've ever seen, shame the UK wasn't ready or swooping lines and 50s style fins.
Looks exactly like this...
I wouldn't mind helping on the Capris Consul restoration, that thing's cool as f*ck,
do you think Andy would be alright with me lending a hand on tear down?
It would be a good way for me to learn the basics on a carb'd classic.
