Well I'm back :)
Hi all
After being away for a while I put a cheeky bid on a Le Mans Green 2.5 and only gone and won it Few daft issues to sort but nothing major - broken bonnet release handle and a key scratch down one side but it was a bargain My question is how do I know which power it has? Is it 180 or 190? And firsts first apart from a service and ****** good clean what's the next thing to do with the v6? |

If it's an Automatic it's 180, otherwise 190. Never mind the service or clean, check any history to see if it needs its belts changing. Otherwise, enjoy!

Brake discs do look a bit small for 190 brakes too, although a bit hard to tell from that distance!

Manual V6's can be either 160 or 190. Easiest way to check is to put the reg no into this site.
https://www.vehicleenquiry.service.gov.uk/ Look at the CO2 emissions a 190 will be 239g/km and a 160 will be 225g/km.

Looks like a 160 with those front brakes, if it's manual.
