The end

Post by loz1971 »

Hi,
The time has come for my 406 to meet the scrap man, it will cost just too much to keep it going. I would like to thank everyone for all the advice and help they have given me over the years. Without all your help, the car would have gone a long time ago. Cheers :)

Well I'm afraid i am now a member of the Rover 75 drivers brigade, i went for the 2.0 CDT Diesel B.M.W. engine, and, of course, having had the exec i went for the model with all the whistles and bells on it, the Conn. S.E. which comes with literally everything fitted to it :cheesy:
They also have an excellent members forum like this one which has already saved me a LOT of money!!

Also not having to watch the fuel gauge all the time is a nice change :lol:
