I'm new to this
06. Apr 2008 at 12:26
 
Have just joined the forum.

Have had 2 Carltons and an M reg Omega 2.0L which l have just scrapped after head gasket blew after 180k. It had been well thrashed.

Have just bought a Silver 2.6i CDX Auto which is very late. Registered in Aug 03 so is on a 53 plate.

Goes so much better than the 2.0L.

Has 101k on the clock but was a great buy, value for money they have a lot going for them. Last owner did 36k in last year so should all be good mileage.

Had the alarm problem when l got it and thanks to forum was able to replace sounder.

Just had cam belt etc, plus water pump changed as can find no history of ever being done. Took the easy option and put in garage though a engineer by trade (now company vechicle is a 13M coach).

Want to put a rear spoiler on it. What looks best and from who?

One other problem is rear window seems to have lost its way and does not close all the way. Any easy answer to this?

Just going to work. Taking coach for a ride on ferry to Isle of Wight so easy day.

Will check out replies if back in time today.
