Time to finally start on the tourer, seeing as i have had it for months and driven around faultlessly. There hasn't really been and reason to do anything in the bad (very cold) weather and with not having a single dry day since owning the car, being honest, i couldn't be bothered.
So now it Begins

As we are at a whopping 51k miles on this car, chances are the main service hasn't been done yet. Which sucks

So the shopping list:
Spark Plugs
HT Leads
Thermostat and new housing
Air Filter
CTS
Lambda
Water Pump
Gearbox Oil
1ltr PS Fluid
Sump Gasket
Timing belt
Aux belt/belts
Rear wiper blade
Total price £238
Already owned:
Full gasket set
Headbolts
Oil Filter
So other than a major service, there was a leak on the nearside front cam carrier, unfortunately it's pretty much a top end rebuild bar 10 head bolts to sort that issue, so when in Rome.
The result of this should be a clean sheet come april's MOT.
I can of course do a part by part fix it guide but that might be a little boring for the people who know how to do most of it, so up to you.
