Have you checked that your brake lights are properly grounded? See if someone has added trailer hitch wiring incorrectly (that is often a source new and interesting lighting issues). Also check to see if you’re getting a good voltage & ground at the terminals (best starting point). Let us know what you find.

Great to hear. Sorry to hear that you’ve got to pay UK fuel prices to keep that baby running. I used to wince filling my POS S40 over there. I’d hate to be paying your fuel bills.

I’d hate to think what it’ll cost to fill when Iran and Venezuela get "liberated". With luck though the next gov’t will lower fuel taxes. It’s nice seeing & hearing of full size vehicles over in the UK.
