Cheers Grrrr, I’ve looked for a couple of weeks and can’t find one with lower mileage. If you see one with less than 88k miles let me know

The dealer marjon though DVLA haven’t laid an egg yet, it’ll come down Thursday in any case. I’ll find a way to get it the 2.5 miles from the ferry port to my house without breaking any laws!

Stay on top off them to get it done. there was a guy on here recently who got left out to dry with the dealer not doing it when they promised they would, think he took the car back in the end.

Have they just took a deposit off you and balance once you are happy at point of delivery or have they took the whole amount off you and charged you on top for delivery?? The dealer who i have done a 3rd time lucky deal with has only took a 10% deposit with balance to pay on delivery ONCE i am 100% happy and FREE delivery to my door with a complimentary tank of fuel included too.
I am sure all will be good for you and enjoy your new P38 buddy.

Do you re-set your fuel/trip computer each time you fill up to clear the residual memory of the fuel computor?? also is that 15 mpg poodling around town or on a motorway at crusing speed say 65 ish??? Have you tried a K&N panel air filter in your air box as these do help a little or do you just drive it like you stole it hence only 15 mpg. LOL

Do you know your local garage at all well and ask them if they would loan you their trade plates for a couple of hours for a drink?? worth asking buddy.The dealer marjon though DVLA haven’t laid an egg yet, it’ll come down Thursday in any case.

K&N filters on a petrol p38 are not always the way to go as the oil on the filter can play havoc with the Maf sensor.

The panel ones are the same as the cone sporty stuff they are still oiled and cleanable. i had one one in the p38 till the other week but as the my dozzle has no maf no worrys only took it out as it wants a clean and i was givern a new Mann one.

Had them in all my cars for 40 years now buddy and NEVER had an issue with them. They have ALWAYS improved all my cars running. I was introduced to them by a close personal family friend who has worked for a TOP F1 team for 45 years now and if they are good enough for F1 cars then they are good enough for me. Same can also be said for the Slick 50 oil and fuel treatments which again he introduced me to and they use in F1 cars. Never had any engine failures ever and they always run smooth with excellent oil pressure too. Its all personal choice at end of the day buddy.

Yes indeed. Just the straight swap item ones, I don't use those full 57i kits or what ever they call them nowadays.Don't think he meant those ****ty filters Brian but a panel one that fits in the filter box.

K&aN allegedly do have better flow than some others, but that comes at the expense of letting more particulates through them just about any other filter

The local LR specialist is a shooting buddy and I recon he lend them but no reason to think it won’t have the reg by Thursday. The DVLA check had been cashed a week or so ago according to the dealer and documents usually follow soon after.

Main use for a cotton gauze filter on a p38 is off-roading. Diesels in particular as the standard airbox is more than big enough for what it needs. If you get a paper one wet you have to dry it out, the other you can flick out the water and carry on.

The DVLA had an outbreak of the virus a couple of weeks ago ,a lot of their staff are working from home I believe.

The k&n panel filters also come with an oil, at least they did when I was running them on high performance V8's a few moons ago.Don't think he meant those ****ty filters Brian but a panel one that fits in the filter box.
