There doesnt appear to be anything in the header tank or in the oil. Have thought it may be the head gasket as the system seems to pressurise which causes the coolant to stop being pushed round through the radiator, hence the overheating. It's very strange. It has allowed me to drive at 70-80 mph sometimes then sometimes overheats at 40 mph. I don't think it's anything drastic, but the head gaskets where replaced about 3 months ago. It ran fine tho up till now.

I'm not looking for much as i said. With all the bits of kit fitted to the car it's had a lot of money put into it. I would love it to go to someone on here and would love for someone to take the time to investigate the coolant problem and keep it running. Worth doing as with the nos on it's as quick as a m3.

I'm going to stick my neck out and say 1600 quid. I know that sounds a lot for a car that is not running right but in my opinion even if it does turn out to be a head gasket(which i don't think it is) it's worth it.

Sorry dan forgot to say. The interior is fine. Drivers right hand bolster is slightly worn on the stitching of the leather. Carpets are fine throughout as is headliner. All electrics work.

Mate seriously ...... You're at least a grand under what you should be getting with all the engine mods.

All someone needs is a donor ....... Not that I'm any kind of mechanic but bl00dy hell mate .......

Mrs C has just hit the roof when I showed her with a "I wouldn't be seen dead in that" (tempting though that it is) .... But come on .... Mine was only a few hundred quid less !

Got to be worth an auction listing on Ebay surely ...... Set the reserve at 1600 maybe if that's all you think it's worth.
