The Dark Wob

No big trip or poo count as car was 10 mins walk away.



Collected the BMW I mentioned last week. Took it for a test drive on Tuesday-very nice drive. Heater fans fixed themselves (bloke put new hedgehog in-made no difference-fans came on halfway through test drive)-I think it was a dodgy relay-anyway bits are cheap for these.

It was put through an MOT on Thursday and passed with three advisories-rear tyres-which I already knew (seller told me about these) and a slight oil leak from the sump.

Paid a grand-not bad in these times-94000 miles, a couple of owners, stamped service booklet up to last year (for what its worth) and a body that is severely lacking in rust (apart from a small pleb on the rear arch).

Plus point again is steel wheels (wifes car)-spare is MIA but one from my spare Senator wheels fits.



So happy so far- will tax on Weds , change engine oil,gearbox oil and spark plugs.

Focus being picked up next week by car take back-£241-had it 9 years-paid £2000 so not bad apart shitting the PAS pipes 3 times.

Sounds decent enough for the price, that self fixing feature is handy too!

Only a fella understands that sentence!

She came home one day and I noticed the sill on her Focus was caved in-i sked what she had done-I must have pulled over too far to let a car pass and hit a rock.

Success-looked under here where I thought the spare would rest in



and found this.

Room for another then?

Makes a change from no spare at all and just an aerosol can of gunk.
