My new toy

Just purchased this 4trak near Manchester. £900 with 11 months mot, tax to end of Jan, full set of steel wheels with mud tyres as well as the alloys and all terrains that are on her. Thought I'd bought a lemon when it boiled up on me after 20 miles >Sad Took the thermostat out and nursed it up to Glasgow where my mate (diesel mechanic to trade) and I flushed her out and put in a new stat and lovely new antifreeze. Some amount of crap came out. He says she's running sweeet as a nut. Got her over the pit at his work and gave her a right good going over. Topped up all the diffs etc, greased everything. He's jealous as he recently bought a 4 year old Nissan pretend offroader and he reckons mine's much better. Overheating sorted, she came up to Glencoe and behaved impeccably... that is until I popped the bonnet and discovered she had pissed the lovely new antifreeze all over herself. Talk about playing hard to get. Found a crack in the top off the rad where the pipe goes in, slapped on some chemical metal and now she's holding her water. New rad on the way. Other than that everything works as it should, just need the odd wee touch up. Looking forward to getting down and dirty with her Wink
