Another New, but not so green, Member
Greetings All,
Just bought myself a 2002 (plated 2001) S Type V8 4.0L
Only 86K miles on it.
All the usual toys on it.
Fancied something different, and seeing as I don't do many miles each year the fuel consumption doesn't bother me any.
It was advertised as having a few problems, both rear tyres worn through to the canvas because the monkey spanner that replaced the rear tracking arms didn't have the wheels tracked afterwards, rear parking sensors playing up (found the bad one), and the main one was it had just started to overheat.
So the owner parked it up as he didn't want to spend any more money on it.
So now it's mine.
I'll start a new thread in the appropriate section on it's current state
