No, I fitted parking sensors front and rear and cameras front and rear because the missus cannot park it. Very useful for hooking up the trailers though. Added fogs and traction control. The stereo seems to have a lot of speakers so that doesn't seem stock but it wasn't me. I put a power-socket in the rear ash-tray for devices in the back and one in the boot that is permanently 12V. When I put LEDs in the reversing lights I get a bulb out error so I thought I might run some extra LED spots hidden underneath but shining out diagonally as it can be pretty dark manouvreing around obstacles here on a winter's night. Not got around to that yet. Decided againt the high-intensity brake light but may add trip functions as per Datatek's discovery.
brill thank you
Mine is same colour got a spray can of it from amazon good stuff, exact match, you would expect it to be slight different shade. I am having another go the weekend so will upload photos see if I done it right this time
Thanks Henry albeit it looks very sorry for itself at the moment being in bits, literally 2 days after I took the photo the engine packed up, but been very close to getting rid of it a few times but thanks to everyone on here I kept the faith! Hope you are keeping well and safe.Nice looking motor that, well worth saving!
Looks like it has the dark interior too..

Timing that looks even more of a pain in the arse than doing the Vanos M62

Don't think so. Buy yourself a pint you deserve one. Everything is easy when you know how. You now know how.

Now i look properly, am a little concerned with last photo. If DTI was locked at 2 mm on inner dial then outer dial zeroed. Reading on small dial after timing set should be 2 mm plus 0.95 mm or very near to 3 mm not zero as in photo.

Ok thanks for spotting @wammers . Is it just a case of adjusting until readings are correct?

The pump must be sat loose at null point on cam NO lift in either direction, nuts are then nipped up so pump can be gently tapped around but not movable by hand, the 2mm is put on small dial and DTI locked in place. Then outer dial is zeroed. Then the pump is tapped towards engine to obtain 0.95 mm on outer dial. The inner dial should read 2.95 mm. NOT zero as in your last photo. The last movement towards engine is so all backlash in the pump internals is removed.
Right ok thanks @wammers will have a go tomorrow.
Just one thing want to make sure I got right, if the key way on the pump is vertical is this null position so when you offer it upto the sprocket you rotate the whole pump so it lines up to sprocket which is in a set position rather than install pump midway on slots then turn the pump shaft clockwise so it lines up with sprocket key way?
