Hi all, newbie to the forum

RichyMistral · 25-09-2012, 11:19

Just thought i would introduce myself. My names Rich and im from the isle of wight. I have just got a 1995 Mistral 2.7td lwb last week.
I'm sure i will be asking stupid questions in the future as my mechanical knowledge is limited.

Welcome Richy, don't worry about stupid questions. If you pay the tenner you can download the manual and the workshops. They'll soon pay for themselves and there are " jokes" thrown in for free. David.
