I got to take Stuarts Green Karmeleon out for a spin last night, now it is back on the road. :mrgreen:

Stuart said he will email me a pic soon so you can see the green colour for the 'green thread'

Its always fun to drive someone elses sc, they all seem different.
The 205's shod all round make for some interesting 'handling' tho' - i think he is thinking about changing that asap

did he sort out the coolant leak? i bodgied the top radiator bleed doobie up so he could drive it, i got a e-mail from stuart saying he was having a little trouble, sounded like it had started leaking again. told him to replace that plastic bleed tap and while he's at it, all the others. bleed the system and refill.

Not my taste, but someone here might like it!

not quite yet, its still gettign air in the system i think. he hasn't had chance to get the new bleed rubber rings yet, so hes being careful not to over heat. It was fine on the temp guage when i took it out.

I had to do the same replacements on our sc too, so told stuart pretty much the same as you did. I'm sure hell get it done asap, as he is using the car for work whilst his red na is getting bodywork done.
