Re: PhotoBucket Jan 2017
I have had some problems lately, mostly it is just very slow, you need to wait long periods while it loads itself, probably to many adverts all the time.. regards ricky

Re: the "mad maestro"
was out meeting some fellow car friends a couple of weeks ago, someone approached me about the car and implied that they might know someone (as they do).. but admiring the car as well, while taking some photo's and video's it cut out.... and would not restart.. turns out the cambelt jumped a few tee...

Re: KV6 Water Pump
bearing in mind that bmw only wanted mini, how well would rover have done if they had not been sold off and had mini themselves.. might have been the saving of them.. regards ricky

Re: KV6 Water Pump
