Changed my aux heater pump today, and topped up the coolant. Likely some air in the system as I'm not getting much heat through the vents now. Any tips for getting the air out quicker?

Bought a 62 plate maxi life from CoPart for my wife to have as a family vehicle and her dog walking business. Spent my time removing front bumper and repairing all the bits....only 3....and boom she's done and through an MOT 😁😁😁.

I'm now trawling CoPart and eBay for one for me 😁😁

Opened up my headlights and re-did the coloured strip, maybe a little nod to the new wrap colour ImageImage

Fitted the Thule Force XT Small roofbox on RWG low profile cross bars.
Neater look than the Thule bars but only 50Kg load limit compared to the Thule bars that are rated 100Kg.

Still has 35kg load available as the box only weighs ~15Kg.
This is plenty for me.
Full 75Kg available if the Thule bars are used.

Looks good to me
:D
