Hi again,
Another request.. The odometer had stopped working - it's now in bits and the plastic cog/ gear has disintegrated - common I believe.. However, the only place I can see sells them are in Australia, and I need it fixed by next week!
Anywhere in the UK I can get one?!

Many thanks

My job has changed and I need something newer that I won't feel bad about sitting in traffic each day, and that I can give the occasional lift to more than one client in comfort. I'd planned to keep it long term, but we are having a camper van built at the same time and on top of the family Volvo I just can't bring myself to run four cars.

It just needs to be comfortable and fun to drive. Nothing as big as a Cayenne! I had a look at a 58 plate BMW 645ci, with a view to hanging on to a V8. I'm not really a mercedes fan and the model numbers baffle me, but I'm sure there are some cheap V8's out there that might be suitable? Any suggestions greatly received.
