Re: how long and what youve had to do ?

Apart from having to replace the window switches which my 4 year old vandalised, and new tyres because the old ones were wearing thin, it's been plain sailing thanks to regular servicing by Allan in Plymouth. It's got almost 81,000 km on the clock (50,600 miles) of which we have done 25,000 km (15,...

Re: Relay thread

Should say we drive every couple of weeks to Bristol and back. If relays are needed from London/Bristol Bristol/London and we can do it, we're happy to help
