many happy miles to ya becks, wishing you many trouble free miles. don't forget to be a regular on here now you're one of us.

Landyzone, we're not just here for the nasty things in life like a blown headgasket, or a seized vcu, or a failed ird, or a leaky rear tailgate, or.....
 
Haha, I'm sure you will have lots of fun.....

Just check the oil and water religiously!

Cheers

Welcome Becks :)

as already mentioned............Just keep an eye on the coolant and oil levels, Transmission, gearbox, Electrical stuff, bodywork and window cables. Apart from that not much to worry about really ;)

Oh yeah and sensible shoes :p
 
Hello Becks, welcome to Landyzone, 1.8 with HG done, I would ask you to consider (if its not been aready done) relocating the Thermostat to the front of the engine (look at QED k series mods on the web) this will reduce a lot of problems that can happen with this type of engine.

Any way I had a 1.8 now for years if there looked after and the after mods done you will have a trouble free car enjoy.

Cheers Dutch RR
