I'll be interested to know how you get on with a 2.25 Diesel on a long trip too. Got any pictures you can post?

yeah, i'll see what i can do over the next couple of days. i'm the second owner of the vehicle. 90+k on the clock. i'm taking it to a mechanic this week to see what needs doing. hope its not bad news. i'm just trying to source cheap parts at present. need new seats and thinking about sound proofing the engine and the cab.

i found my series 111 diesel lwb to be flat out at 52mph, but once it got up there it stayed there uphill, downhill and on the flat. noisy, bumpy and draughty...f*****g magic!!!!!
