Keep the thread updated please Mr & Mrs Howey Thumb Up

Just spent about £250 on parts for mine ..
distributor cap, rotor arms, HT leads, spark plugs, oil filter, air filter, fuel filter, cambelt kit, coil pack, radiator, water pump, radio blanking plate.

Having a service next Tuesday, so will see if there's any more bits.

Car is at 114k miles, only done 7000 miles in the last 5 years [and only 700 miles in the last 12 months].

Retro FTW [with Modern as a back up] lol
