Hi guys,

I'm new to forum and looking to purchase a 59 plate CTR. It has 52k on clock and I was wondering if the timing chain should be replaced or will need replaced soon? Also what is a rough cost for this? I have read through the buying guide but haven't found any info on when certain things should be replaced or the service schedule.

Thanks in advance

At 52k Timing chain should be fine mate,I'm guessing they they should replace after 100k or with in that range not 100% sure on that
I think the cost for this job be £400 +
If you do purchase the car do a full service yourself

Long time ago I had and Ep3 for 220k kilometers in[…]
