Right not really a major thing here just wondered if these engines are normally rattley engine.
Ours isnt noisey as such but isnt as refined as some modern engines.
Tickover is fine but its when i move the car into the garage i just notice its cam rattley. the car has done 20k wiv ful ren service history wiv the last one carried out feb 2012.

As ever people many thanks for reading.

I noticed they sound quite tappety and unrefined even from new.

The 133 isn't particularly refined either, but then again its sort of the appeal

Mine does too (I've a Freeway) but once it's warmed up it's usually fine.
My car tends to get a lot of condensation because my street is overgrown with trees, so it's quite damp, I think that contributes to it, partially.
