Had a lovely guy stick his hand up in my engine bay like James Herriot birthing a cow.
Bonnet now open, booked into gearbox place now.

Haven’t done anything for a while & won’t be either, I have decided to sell up & move on, just haven’t gelled with it as I was hoping to, will get a full Ad up at the weekend once I given it a clean.

On the look out for a set of coilovers! Control arm from strut to ARB snapped on me. If anyone knows of any, drop me a message, greatly appreciated.

Ive booked it in for a new cambelt waterpump and new aux belt to be fitted for next tuesday and when it's back it's getting some TLC as i've been busy the inside is getting more like a builders van (i know that's my job) the dust has built up in the cab and looks terrible now so wednesday coming out with the hoover give everything a clean and polish and the outside will get a good clean to remove the mechanics grubby prints off the paintwork
