There’s me thinking it was Balamory
Hopefully just a gassing up! Is that going to Bentley? On my Conti someone mistakenly used leak detection fluid in the AC. Apparently that's a serious mistake. It was not a cheap fix!

I was told that the design and routing of the system meant that it was impossible to drain fluids from the system. Bentley quoted £9k to empty (at Crewe as the dashboard had to come out - through the windscreen??) if vacuum drying didn't work. Luckily after 3 rounds of drying and purging it dried out sufficiently... Worrying time!No, needs a new condenser.
Wonder why leak detector is an issue? Oh well I trust Danny et al so sure it'll be fine!

He likes German engineering and Boxer engines in particular; get over it!
In terms of the tw@ scale, I would have put the scooby higher than the boxter. Especially if it has a 'hoog zorst'.Consider it done. However, if he really wants to buy a characterless boxer-engined car, tell him to buy a Subaru Impreza. That way he won’t be regarded as a complete tw*t.

I replaced mine myself. A fair amount of labour involved, but not a technically difficult job. While the front is coming off the car get Danny to check the condition of your radiator (they rot and swell at the bottom(!), power steering pipes which corrode due to their location (inner wing mud trap) and have the sidelight bulbs changed to LED (very cheap, but get the correct type) as thay make a world of difference to how the car looks.
Cheers Mark! Might be a bit late, I think it's nearly done!

Not too late, as he's down at the factors getting the hoses made. Rad is fine, and apparently I have LED's. Who knew?!

Danny is good! Please send him my best when you collect your car. Thankfully I have no need to see him currently!
