Hey I've only just seen this thread sorry. this may have been me / my Mrs. We aren't that far from Orpington. I seem to remember stopping by by the side of the road, not the m25 but a layby just off the motorway to sort my little one out! Were u in an F?
Buy one
Drive it
Enjoy it
Look after it and maintain it well, repair it when it needs it.
Life's to short to have a nice car sat on the drive and not using it because you are worrying about ruining it's potential future value
Hello. I won't post the price on here as I understand it can vary depending on how easy the bits and pieces they have to remove to access the Valley plate come apart.
Sorry I should have been clearer. My one isn't up for sale, I was just posting for reference as to what I'd be after if I ever sold up. Some of the ones that are up for sale now do seem a little overpriced to be honest!
Just thought I'd update you all. Valley plate leak all fixed now. Westfield done it, highly recommend them and will use them again in the future.
Thanks to everyone that contributed.

My car has done 106k miles. In the last 5k miles it has had new shocks and springs, h&s exhaust, new rad, valley plate leak repair, new brakes all round, new tyres x4 Id be looking at just under 20k to sell her.
Hi all
Thanks for the recommendations. Sounds like westfield are the way forward.
In response to an earlier post, I had noticed that the car was losing a bit of coolant slowly.. I called my mechanic to have a look at it, he poked around and then found a bit of coolant residue in the middle of the V.
@Mr Vlad thanks for the link. I've seen that before actually. I think I'd prefer to use a mechanic that has performed the job previously.
@4969_LXS thanks for the recommendation I'll contact them.
Hi all,
My isf has got the dreaded coolant Valley plate leak. Just wondering if anyone can recommend a garage to get the Valley plate leak repaired.
I Welcome any recommendations, we are based in South London, but willing to travel to the right garage.
Also approx how much have you paid to get your Valley plate leak repaired?
Thanks in advance
