JTD130... Ideal baby car.

Especially when you don't have the baby in the back and you can stretch it's 5-cylinder legs

They'll strech a little further now that 10 tonnes of carbon has been removed from the EGR and a new MAF is on order!!!

Was thinking of maybe a roofbox for the baby.........

Re: My £450 Marea JTD 130

You could do, it's only a five minute job and the gaskets are a couple of quid if you need a new set. Mine had been driven by a OAP for 8 years so was full of soot and the big metal pipe going to the inlet was 1/4 of it's original size full of gooey carbon.

Don't think it would hurt and wouldn't trust the Fiat muppets to do it. Giving it a full service tomorrow when the bits arrive so should be as good as new.

Alternative give the car a very un-gentle thrash up and down the dual carriageway. Clear the rubbish out.

Re: My £450 Marea JTD 130

Lol where did you have the tuning done and how many miles did the 'wolf' have on her when you gave her a kick up the arse!

I had my Fabia vRS up to 180 and it was an animal
