  2. Brother just bought a 2006 year diesel one, loverly car but left the electric hand brake on and not started it for 6 weeks and now the battery's flat so will not release the hand brake. Also driving brake pedal gone hard, servo gone and as diesel has a vacume module thats gone and caused fluid in servo, new vucume unit £700 plus servo etc. Had the cambelt changed in the first week as a precaution. The cheap car is becoming a money pit. Luck of the draw. I had many years ago a 1961 mk two auto 2.4, which has been my favourite car ever since. Buy it and enjoy the experience.

    I'm really torn. I want it, It's cheap. Lou want's to give me money towards it for my birthday, I've always wanted one and it's quite a nice, one, but I really don't know if I'm just being extravagant and having it just because I can!
