Atlas 12v 0 Posted March 23, 2005 Report Share Posted March 23, 2005 I've only had to replace 1 x starter motor @ £75.00 and 1 x Cam position sensor @ £23.00 Pads and Discs all round @ £200.00. Not bad for 2 1/2 years ownership. Link to post Share on other sites
Slim 0 Posted March 23, 2005 Report Share Posted March 23, 2005 I've had mine for about 6 months now, the only thing I've needed to replace is front brake pads and discs and a driveshaft oil seal (although I've not got round to doing that yet). I've spent a stupid amount of money on other bits for it though. Link to post Share on other sites
