Latest on my Delica, it's in the UK and through the MOT. I just need to get it registered with the DVLA and i'm Deli Grin time. I was a bit dissapointed with Algys Autos as 7500 on the road UK does not mean 7500 on the road UK. I have had quite a few extra bills that should have been covered. I'm up to just over 8 grand at the moment. |

That's not so good - they should be clear about the on-the-road price. Let's hope it stays at 8K! _________________ "Dixie" The Silver 2005 Active Gear 3 Litre V6 Petrol Bitch |

Firstly and most importantly is check the cambelt has been changed! The 3.0 V6 is an interference engine and if the belt fails it can cause catastrophic damage! If the timing belt snaps, they run into each other, causing bent valves (most common), cylinder head or camshaft damage, and possibly piston and cylinder wall damage. While it is possible that no damage could occur from a snapped belt on an interference engine |

Good to know.
It's with a garage at the moment and I can get them to do the change. |

Hi
I've got the same one from 2005.
How is yours going after a year? |
