After the nightmare trying to get to Wolverhamton by train on Friday evening , owing to the Virgin mainline being closed at Birmingham owing to a fatality on the
line . I finally arrived at 22.50 :( I Collected the "new" to me '04 Black MV6 saloon from Tall Paul :y
First impressions are very good all round . Seems a very well maintained car , drives great . :y
most of the major "pitfalls" (cam belt, oil cooler, thermostat & coolant transfer pipe) have all recently be done.
Nice cold air con , very good condition door cards & interior. aftermarket Sony stereo fitted ( that sounds good) & 2 new front tyres
alloys good nick , Long MOT & 5 months tax :y
Slight negative points: EML light was on as per usual for a 3.2 . . . but checked codes & only 2 showing usual lambda sensor faults . Cleared codes & light has
stayed off :o :o
Slight rust showing on one rear arch but nothing that cannot be sorted quickly.
All in all very pleased & sincere thanks to Paul for a good deal :y :y

Put your code reader on it in a day or 2, if the codes are back (they do not always bring on EML until they go beyond a certain threshold), arrange to get them moved :y
