Thread resurrection

I'm back!!!

well, seems a rather weird co-incidence in this thread for cozza , firstly I work in Knutsford but live in Accrington,

secondly

yes, I owned R887DNA for a year and described on here my rather eventful ownership of it (gearbox going 6 weeks in, rebuilt at 2.5K, went again, water leak that cost > 1K at mates rates to chase, TPS sensor and a few other bits. )

but heres the rub, it was me that owned and converted L43 NEC to LPG! I owned that car ~ 3 years before I bought the A8 ( had a V70 T5 in between ). I'm glad to see the old bus is still going even if she is a little tired. When I sold her she had a quirk that occasionally when you switched her on she would be as dead as a dodo, 3 or 4 goes later it would all spring to life, then it wouldn't do it again for anywhere between 2 weeks and 4 months.

I still have in the garage the lowered progressive springs I bought for her just before I sold her. If you want them let me know and I'll drop them off....

Ian
