[Jenkosowls]

Well im back and kinda in a Pug well citroen to be precise but were all friends here! Im in a mk1 Citroen Berlingo with a crummy DW8 crap its not even good on fuel but that could be down to the fact you have to thrash any where! Any way little history for those who dont remember or are new i kicked around here and had a phase 1 dt that at a once had a recorded stage peaked power at 173bhp it had mods to take it further than that but never got dyno'd in full glory but 180bhp was a reasonable safe bet.

For those who like pics here she is in here glory.








Any way after solid mounting the rear engine mount she kept snapping engine bolts taking out clutches with it. And after what seemed like going round in circles with repairs partly to blame with the shit roads round here and the looming tax a good £400 was needed to put her right i could'nt justify it so she got broken up. And i bought a volvo.... it came up dirt cheap and at the right time. it was always going to be a stop gap car but i nearly kept it i bought a tow bar and a big feck off trailer to convert into a workshop. I soon sacked that idea off!







The 2.5l 5 pot engine sounded soooo good but the same couldnt be said about the fuel consumption all 25mpg of it! So the trailer then volvo went and i had some cash to invest into a new van.

now while i had the volvo id received some compensation the intial idiea was to invest it into a mk2 berlingo/partner rip the nad out drop an xud9te engine and get back up and boosting with some mods a few members knew about. But having the volvo at the time i invested the money else where wisely at the time and soon i back tracked and here we are today.....

So £550 later i have this


Rough around the edges need tlc but vans do! the guy wouldnt budge on price dispite few niggles but most of the other vans were either in a much worst state or no tax or mot but couple hundred more! i did nearly buy a mk1 hdi berlingo uber rare! but they wanted silly money.... any way im rabbiting on.

week later did sweet fa just building a list of fixes and drove it being a typical van driver.







and thats about it for now il be making another post of where i am to date...
