Bought this locally a few weeks ago of a guy Nigel Gilbert near Lisburn. Its a nice old jeep, clean inside and out. A few questions: I may require a Rad as there is a small leak, where would I source one in Northern Ireland. Also there is a small bit rust in each back quarter near each tail light, would like to tidy it up as the rest of the G is in great shape, is there anyone near Belfast who anyone could recommend to do a good job to this at reasonable cost. I had an old W123 300d a few years ago and ran it on biodiesel, it ran good no problems over the 18 months i had it. Will the G be happy enough on Bio? Any stations in County Down/ Belfast area anybody knows of? I only know the one at the Temple.

It was meant in a good way. I'm sure Fixwin has filled you in now though, anyway.
