Hi All

Just joining the forum. Had two Berlingos so far (2005 HDi desire - sold - and 2001 1.6 16v forté with 160k miles - still going) and possibly about to buy a 2008 1.6 petrol too...

I'm mindful to say that I prefer driving the M49 to the M59; anyone else have an opinion on this?

Cheers

Thanks everyone. Well, just done a deal on a 2008 1.6 petrol Forté with 90k miles for £1350. It's also recoded as a Cat D write off (hence the price), but is in very decent nick for 90k above and below, bar the exhaust hangers having failed on the rear silencer and some rather old engine oil and coolant.

I'm going to swap rear axles with my other Berlingo so the newer car has the Fraser Brown refurbed rear axle. I have a clutch kit here too (action getting a bit heavy) and some new driveshafts; the old parts will generally get swapped to the old car as they're still reasonable and I'll then probably sell it.
