I think after spending this much money on it, I need to at least use it a little 
Insurance is a big issue though on something bigger!
Andy it's getting new:
Cambelt
Idler and tensioner
Water pump
Oil pump
Headgasket set
Sump gasket
Oil filter
Plugs
Oil
New radiator
New lower temp fan switch
Cool running thermostat
and a new Valeo clutch!
