The Dark Wob

What else occurred, well it went to France and back twice. In its first 4 months with me it did 8000 faultless boring miles, most at 70+. The juddery clutch still judders, the cambelt is still all roulettey and its had 2 oil changes and actually looks clean now.

The glowplug light flashes a bit too much but ill hold off the £13 for a set until winter as that's when I can guarantee rain running down my back the best.

This is from collection day.
I ran it for a month or 2 but then offered it on the beige for removemycar price plus about £20. Not great for me when I bought it for £700 6 months previously, but I could not in any way be arsed with trying to sell a car with declared faults to the public.

ohh I decided it looked a bit like the old tefal advert too. It visited St Brieuc.
And took us to our soon to be new home as it turned out.

The most honest car purchase I have every made, genuinely restored my faith in humanity.

Then the boot lock switch thing died, but I had a few old computers in stock so its power switch was donated.

Cost update for April was £589.72 - £239 scrap = £350.72 or £87.88 per month.

Cost update for May is £70.14 pm

June splashed out on a clutch kit for £40 delivered although it isn't slipping it feels different?? maybe its my arthritic knees. Either way total just hit £629.72 or for June assuming no other bits fall off £65.12pm. Still smashing the white Gay180 I could've saddled myself with.

Long time no updates on account of it just working. I fitted a towbar and pulled a trailer over to the French house, and am currently sat in misery central waiting on a set of their finest Chinese ditchfinders.





The scores on the doors for are.

Jan 20, 4 tyres £131.20 rovello quality. Seem quiet enough but feel like they need pumping up a bit more. I’ll check them in the morning.

Total £770.92 - £239 = £481.92/13 £37.07pm

In context the cheapest 28 day bus pass in Manchester area is £68 granted I wouldn’t have to fuel the bus.

The MOT is also due so I’m obviously committed myself to it for another year at least.

Bastard trouble free my arse, passenger window switch being a dick and will only go down and drivers side will only go up? WTF?
