Cheers Ray Hopefully with a major service, most issues "hopefully" sorted and just the odd surface rust and now a fresh MOT - it would be trouble free for a while ... Maybe trouble free for years for the new owner .. Then again maybe the next big bill will hit Wayne if he keeps her any longer looking at his track record :eek: :( :( :(

Yeah Thats why I am always worried other gremlins might crop up! :( Got a headlight upgrade loom - i darent fit it Got a BMC CDA - darent fit that! Found a replacement sunroof on eBay - seller sent a different one! Always planned to replace brake fluid - weather and schedule was never right :( First job was to replace chain + clutch - but then got hit by the £1000 garage bill ... Seller said roof does NOT leak! It does Hopefully "touch solid english hard oak" its not leaked since i re-fitted it Etc Etc Etc Its the BIG costs one after another thats draining my spirit right now... Little ones and ocassional big ones is to be expected for older cars. And how long I bad mine? Is it 4 months and £6k afters? :shrug: :bonk:

So many bodges I dont know which ones we fixed and which ones we created thereafter! :eek: I ll ask if they did a vagcom tomorrow too then ..

I did ask the garage "are u 100% sure?" They said we are "90% certain" I ll give em a ring tomorrow just in case ...

It was replaced at 1st garage ...

My C s failed the MOT :( I 1/2 expected that... But ...didnt expect it needed a NEW cat :shocked!: Another £1k garage bill? :eek: :( :( :(

Lol Thats good enough for me! :thumbleft:

Cool! Just wana check Do we get to tinker with your C together? :lol: :eek:

Cheers David Might be popping south this summer hols Your cuppa invite still open to a possible non-C owner then?

Fingers CROSSED, guys that she passes her MOT! I only know the rear brake driver bulb blown... That reminds me to look at putting in a bulb for the 2nd reversing light (as I like both to work and looks nicer )

I know Cant believe myself too. But its decided now :(

2.6k????!!!!!! :eek: :shocked!:

I had too coz i yorkshire too - lol

Tempting .... Is that BEFORE or AFTER i pay the garage £500+ ??? :lol:

Moi? Never! (Wayne slips a couple of sleeping pills ...) :lol:

Totally agree, Tiger Thanks! :thumbleft: I would still get one And try my hands on too! But without a garage nor a drive nor a 2nd car to fall back on - This is other factors now forces a sale ... :(

Absolutely! May i suggest add to the end "optional PREMIUM 121 diet consultation available at discounted members rate!"

Yup! :dance: :lol: Diet is simple: what u put in, is what u get :lol: And MOST IMPORTANT everyone is different! My diet: 1. 6 days a week - 5mins rowing (i have a rower at home) 2. 6 days a week - 25mins cardio (i do ShaunT s T25 - water downed version of Insanity) Food wise - i eat the same food as before ... BUT reduce the portion size and frequency. So like that breakfast buffet? I used to go say 6 times a year - now i go twice. I used to go for 10 rounds of bacon, sausages etc. - now only go for 4. It simply common sense. Eat the amount u burn - or just above so u dont gain weight etc If u go without the diet - then keep it under a month. So if u go on a 2 weeks hols and not stuck to diet thats fine. As your body still have a high metabolism - but if u stop dieting for more than 4 weeks - then u start to gain fat .... :eek: :shocked!: U can be picky with food Or lose a stone a month Or count calories I cant be bother and want a maintainable diet with little change in my lifestyle. So, Literally an hour at home exercise (including shower) And losing slowly 3-4lbs a month is good for me :thumbleft: And its FREE after initial outlay :dance: That s just my experience! Am sure fitness fanatics, weight watchers, atkinson s dieters, 5:2 dieters etc have different opinions ...

U wana bet??? :lol:

Cheers bud

Lol U know the area - go and get one in the Granary now!!!

I agree It does feel like literally flushing £6k down the drain by selling. But I think i rather cut my losses now and start to look forward to the day of buying a MINT low mileage one ...did someone say £6k for a MINT one???

Been on diet for over 12months now.. ..lost 2st Today, SOD it!

I am one of those numpty who just see it and went WOW! Seriously Did the basics Drove for miles on test drive Tested handbrake all miles etc etc And NOTHING went wrong (apart from poor bodywork) Didnt stall once! Except once on return trip ... What can I say?

Thanks :) And No i not...
