Thanks but it is a 4 cylinder... I personally had the V6 a few years ago, it was a 900SE. No prblems with the motors, the dealer changed the timing belt via a factory recall, they said the new one was a different size. Never had a problem with the motor, only the gearbox needed a very expensive switch!

Very few people have good things to say about the V6. | If she gets the car: MAKE SURE THE TIMING BELT GETS CHANGED WHEN DUE. | | Rob.
