I've got one you can have if you would like to take it off the car - but we are rather a long way from Norwich :shock:

Thanks peter, bit too far though!
Im going to put a plastic undertray on the car so the MOT man cant see the leak untill one turns up.

Dave. A while ago there was a scrapyard with an XM. I can't remember where it was now but it was definitely Norfolk-ish.

Got it. http://www.dysalvage.com/

Yes Dave, the Salvage Yard highlighted by Will just south of Norwich did have a 'J' plate 2.0 non turbo that I had a few parts off. The car is probably still available and the Boss (David) would move the car if necessary and let you remove the rack and ram that should be fairly easy with that engine. I would check the price before you go and negotiate as required. Good luck and regards, Matthew T.

Dave,

AS per FCF, if you have no luck, I may have one, and certainly one removed already if they ARE the same as Xantia ones...
