Well years ago I had a 2.8 but circumstances changed and had to sell up . Anyway a few month ago I bought a 2.0 and I had a few problems with it to say the least.

After a lot of advise from numerous people on here but @mrscalex who took a lot of time to explain what to try I eventually gave up and the 2.0 went back to the seller.

Want to say thanks for everyone’s help on that one ;)

So a 2.8 came up for sale and I thought I will go have a look ...anyway I bought it and so far it’s much better than the 2.0 and I would go as far to say better than my first 2.8
Thanks again

Tony

Lovely. The 2.8i six is a truly wonderful engine. We took ours out on Friday for a food shopping trip, but went the ‘long way’ round...

Top down, warm sun, great car...
