The main reason I bought it! Looking forward to playing with it now! No, the only gearbox solenoid is (fortunately or unfortunately?) my arm..!

Bought it! Then found the intake hanging off and a vast array of other problems to sort!

Haha cheers, feel properly part of the club now! I will do if I can sort this racket out! Engine/gearbox collapse is my guess but not sure where to look yet!?

Well I bought it! Needed to get something soon and that was the cheapest for the spec level. First and main issue, the exhaust is rubbing on the front prop-ird flange. Makes a right old racket! Hopefully get under it later and see what's a miss. Need to sort driver's door window regulator and...

Yeah the japs love a 3 pot! I think they are great. Gf's smart car is 3 pot turbo and it sounds great. Smoother than a 4 pot too, unless it's just that engine.. Haha yeah actually Dave I remember my 5 series had leather and it was a bit cold when you first got in! Soon warms up though. The...

Yeah, im leaning away from diesel (baaaa ) but do love auto's. I think that mpg is just too low for me to justify though. The difference between the td4 auto and the K4 is absorbed by fuel price differences. The main reason for me wanting the K4 is the super simplicity and cheapness to...

Are they colder than any other car? Out of interest, anyone have a rough real world mpg comparison between a k and the V6? I think the only thing I'd miss from.my BMW is my lazy auto!

I thought as much. One I'm going to see is perfect bar heated leather.. I have never had that on any car so can easily do without! Might just get some decent seat covers or something if the cloth isn't great. Anyone used and good seat covers they could recommend incase?

Another thing I have noticed... There appears to be alot of 'special editions' with nothing particularly special about them...?

Top man, cheers. Will report back later on the one I'm hopefully viewing today!

I will also dig out your handle repair for future reference!

Glad you agree, he won't budge so it'll leave it with him! Got another to go look at tomorrow hopefully. Not as many toys but far less miles.

I agree, came to the same rough price list as you. Happy to do all the work myself, just not keen on paying that much for a car that needs that much work doing! See what else comes up....

Yeah 800, it needs a new centre exhaust/possibly get away with welding the bracket back on, tailgate handle is a mess, been glued on and the no. plate light is all hanging out and stuff, 3 window regulators are dead can hear the cables chewing up. The under tray/sump guard is hanging of, might...

The guys selling that black hse won't budge on price, for the work needed I'd say it's about £100 too much.. I will try him again next week!

Yeah I noticed there was only a handful, and that was 2016 I think.. shame! Hopefully it will come back.. do they also have to be road legal?

Handy to know! Cheers.

How did I not find that site! Bloody impressive that they are pretty much stock... Though I'm pretty sure I hear one fella he changed the cams in his K for some from a rover for more torque? And another fitted a turbo. Everything I have seen is quite old, does it still run?

Where abouts is that mark?

My thoughts exactly!
