Nice to meet you, albeit briefly! Sorry I was in such a rush at the airport, I just made my flight... great to hear of a proper high mileage B10, you can find my thread on B3 no 88 (should have your number plate on it!) in the general discussion part of the forum- please share some more about your car![/code]

That's alright. My reg is R 88 ALP not B 88 ALP. I think mine is the highest mileage 3.3 in UK. I think I even beat Charles 3.4 B3s as his on his 4th head gasket compare with mine is still on its original 1st one. :D . So if you like to know any info just ask. Have my dyno test about 2 or 3 yrs ago at near 180k or 190k still got 282bhp from the old sonny. More than happy and no regret to have it since 2004. Now under my ownership for last 14 years and more than 190k(going to be 200k soon) done by me. :D :D :D

Will love to see you in future meet and talk about 3.3. By the way that's the 2nd time be spotted. Good job! :D

That's the problem with the 3.4 engine, James :(
