Newbie, Pete in Newark

Postby Pete.s » Fri Feb 02, 2018 4:57 pm

Bought me a Mk6 280 swb, 2006 semi high roof yesterday, reckon i got a little gem as almost no signs of any rust underneath!! :o :D and ONLY 56,000 genuine miles, tow bar which i wanted, alloy lined in back, nearly new tyres, not perfect paintwork but good enough, under the bonnet looks like 2 yrs old 8)
I joined the forum last night and already got some usefull info and no doubt I'll be back for more help / advice.
I'm an old school mechanic from the 70's / 80's, Mk1 Transits, Capri's etc etc, only do me own mechanics now but I'll try an chip in on here wherever I can, I have full Delphi diagnostics on me laptop ( not tested yet on the transit) if anyone wants the use of it (i'm in Newark)

Regards, Pete
