Thanks all,
OK so the smile has dropped a little but not too much
Car is in RK Automotive having new Torque Converter, 100k service inc both belts and a new oil pump
Just had a call to say the rear prop centre bearings are shot and it'll need a new one, another £250 oh well at least there is no labour for fitting it
Will report back once I have it which should be Monday

Got her back today and have spent the best parts of £4k getting her up to spec
What a difference, smooth quiet, seamless gear changes and no more wandering all over the place, money well spent me thinks

Cheers chaps, yes it does feel good, long may it continue, however, having owned Landys for a few years now, I fear it may not last as long as I hope
Fingers crossed eh
