Well it wasn't good enough in the end, definately looking at engine change now. He has contacted Goldie for the work and the car is off the road till it goes till Falkirk for surgery haha. Seen him last night and he let me have a listen to it, oocha not good. Loud tapping/knocking noise. So if anyone here knows of a good KV6 drop a note please

Haha, just been getting messages from him. Pitlochry, well could have been worse he might have got stuck at drumochter. Apparently his brother wasn't best please with bits of KV6 rattling off his windscreen at 50mph. Seems pretty impressed with you and what you have in your workshop anyway.
Was good of you to go and meet him at that time of night too, don't know what time he left here but I dropped him to tow ropes before 1700.
