was offered 2k for the mini today :) well pleased with that although its probabily really only worth £500 :P

well have to say that changing a speedo in situ really is as hard as everyone says, very painful as well, at least its done now

Is it worth replacing my 88 thermostat with an 82 or 74 if my engine is getting too hot?

-
Skortchio
An engine runs at its best around 88 degrees, my point is that if the car is overheating then there is an issue. Having the thermostat open sooner will only mask it.

Well i dont know if it is overheating, it just felt very hot to the touch
