    Thanks for this - there's still a smedgeon of hope, as it's the first
    two weeks we plan to be there, but I don't suppose I can depend on it.

    It's going to take away flying time if you do this.

    Time? I have a tame mechanic these days. Money, it's money that would be
    the issue.

    Anyway, I'm clearly not interested. I'm just idly curious as to which
    engine it has.

    That's all.

    Is it a 4X4? I should get my Jimmy detailed but I'm too lazy to unload
    all my tools.

    In
    It's the 3.5 EFi V8, and it's got most of an LPG conversion fitted, huge
    tank in the boot, the vaporiser is still there, and there's a box of bits in
    the boot that will probably make the gas run again.

    There's new shells and a sump gasket in the boot as well, and all of it is
    in Liverpool, which is probably far enough away to put you off, although I
    bought it in Kent and it drove here happily enough.

    Oh, there's a full new exhaust on it as well.

    Could make a lovely off road buggy thing with it...

    Detailed is a step beyond valeted. Detailed would meticulously
    cleaned, polished, paintwork sorted etc, inside and out, often to show
    standard.
