    Leaky boot

    It was corrected thought diagnostics although they said they couldn't locate the fault. It's been fine though. It's had some gremlins lately. It's had a service and mot done this year, pads and discs replaced. I'm going to keep it another few months and trade it in. Had a look the other day but...

    Leaky boot

    Quite possibly you know. Didn't really think back to that. There's always an issue of sorts and spent money I didn't want to spend. Looking at trsding it in at summer. I'm not enjoying it anymore. I guess these cars and the age they're at will just require money throwing at them. My 172 was...

    Living with a 197 cup.. Vilnius or bust!

    I enjoyed reading that. I've had mine just 3 years now, a cup also in nimbus. I think I've spent well over 2k on it. I didn't mind at first but now it's a case of getting it tiptop thinking nothing else could possibly pop up and low and behold I'm back at the garage handing my bank card over for...

    Gear change noise

    Help!! Car won't start for RAC

    My mate came and if he rocked the car and tried starting it, it actually turned over but otherwise not so much. The immobilizer light stays on and the fan comes on too. RAC was useless. I gave him a below average score on his fecking laptop
