Update… Aug 10th…

Well I haev had the XR4x4 for nearly 3 months… and done something like 1700 miles to date.. 700 was done on a trip to Fort William and SKy.

It’s driving OK, the THROB at 60MPH is getting annoying…

I had to replace the front outer CV boot last week, and ended up having to drill out the bottom hub pinch bolt.. Only to find I did nto need to undoo it!!!

I also replaced the lock set so 1 key now does everything appart form the boot ( I can’t be botherd with that at the moment!! )

It’s doing well in the Miles/£ stakes..

Still looks like crap though…

Almost all of the 2.0i Ghia has now gone. Something in the region of £400 was recouped from the sale of parts.. which means that it cost me something like £20 to do 3700 miles!!! BARGIN!

I am always on the lookout for another bargin though….

The volvo is needed back on the road, but trying to get her started the other day was fruitless… The fule rail is now in bits and the battery is on charge!
