I bought my 1999 TD5 110 nearly 5 years ago for £3500
It ended up costing me around £1000 to get the engine sorted due to blown HG and cracked cylinder head (£1000 includes replacement head, fuel cooler, coolant pipes, thermostat, water pump, coolant temp sensor etc).
Since then (not including normal service items such as oils and filters) it's had........
1 door lock linkage
passenger front door card
new fuel filler cap
2 new wing mirrors (originals were vandalised)
1 set of HD steering bars after I bent the originals
steering damper
Another set of track rod ends
a MAF sensor
additional assister springs fitted inside standard rears
power steering pump
2 new headlights (upgrade rather than needed)
new brake master cylinder
all new brake pipes
new fuel pump
injector washers
rear brake pads
front brake pads
front brake discs
Front brake calipers
Front wheel bearings
I think that's about it.

Yes found it no problem, changed em in carpark. Really must remember to engage difflock before removing the the flange bolts.
Is the carpark still free or have they made it pay and display?

I would have reported the garage for hooky MOTs. No way that should have passed. Obviously knows the farmer.

Defo report mot station to trading standards. They do investigate them.
