The vehicle is for sale because the IRD (independent rear drive) has failed, due to a Garage in Doncaster fitting the wrong size tyres. Doncaster, dodgy, well I never.....

So, last night as I got back from the pub, I noticed that the front reg plate on the Ibiza was dangling by one screw. Thought, "fix that tomorrow", went to bed Took the dog up to the local woods this am totally forgetting about the reg plate, only noticed it was even more poorly when I wal...

Tester said charged but it didn't turn over as usual. Jump pack on it and running instantly. So I thought it'd be OK after a run. Went to Lid...
