Merry Xmas everybody. by
Elder
I'm not even going to mention car mods, as nobody ever usually does, so
why make an exception.
Oh, and happy birthday to me.

New zafira diesel minireview by
Tim S Kemp
Currently in a Zaf 1.9 diesel thing, not sure how many horsies but quite
nippy and a six speed box. Toyota being fixed after milk float incident.
Drives like the old Zaf, dull but safe. Low profile tyres give it more grip
than power, 6 speed box means 33mph/1000 in top.
Engine is quiet inside the car but for whine at top end. Vibration through
clutch pedal at low rpm is a bit intrusive....

OT: - Modifications post (rambling) by
Bob Sherunckle
This week I have mostly been buying throttle bodies (for the sylva).
Oh, and another engine.
These are all ebay specials of course.
The 36mm throttle bodies should be sound for the 1.8 Zetec and I will run it
on Megasquirt with the Extra firmware.
Haven't bought the ECU parts yet, but that will be soon.

FS: Citroen Xantia Activa 2.0T for spares by
AstraVanMan
Right - this is the car I found by chance at a local garage who'd taken it
in part-ex and just wanted rid. It was ideal and cheap enough to take a punt
at even if not all the bits I wanted were good. Mine had a leaking
Hydractive II gizmo-doobris and a leaking front hydraulic ram, as well as
flood damage affecting various electrical bits.
This Xantia started off as a runner, with a good...

The reason I ask about sensible diesels. by
Elder
In the local shopping centre last week, Lexus had a stand showing off
the IS250D.
Very pleasant place to be inside, if a little cramped in the back.
I got chatting to the sales lady showing it off and asked what I drove
"Toyota Celsior, the import version of the original LS400, but it is a
bit thirsty, I only get 23 to the gallon commuting and arround 28 on a
long fast motorway run, but I...
