Title: Old owner, new member
Post by gaffer on 12. Mar 2007 at 10:55

Hi and greetings to all. I'm John and I live between Solihull and Coventry. I've had a 2000 MV6 estate (non-plod) in champagne since 2002, and found it to be a splendid machine - but that won't stop me adding bits! Latest job is reversing sensors; got a bum kit from someone on eBay, replaced it with one from Maplins that seems to work but is maybe a bit oversensitive. I'm also hunting for the right cruise control actuator - got two wrong ones now from guess where!
What I really want is a 2.5 diesel Elite estate, but I suspect you guys have got them all hidden away somewhere.
What I like about this forum is that it tells me the right way to do the jobs I've already done!

'Sright, Tunnie. I didn't think the 3.2 came in until a year or so later? Yes, fly-by-wire would be cool, but one has to go with what one can get, and this was the only one for miles.
