    The Patisserie breakfast isn't all for me. 
    However, that fact remains that I'm logging my breakfast on social media, must be time to collect a car.

    So all fixed now with the 307.
    Plus new cam belt, water pump and gasket.
    Next: look at the grumbling wheel bearing. Then it will be good as new. 
    And next, i have to collect my new car. Thats going to happen in the morning.
    I suppose this will become a collection thread in the morning.

    Right then Saab! Your turn. After a long lay up I’ve finally got round to booking this in for a fix. 

    The air con compressor clutch seized and the bearings in the pulley appear to have gone wrong as it sounds like the jetsons car.  I’ve been quoted £lotsamoney by the Saab specialist for replacement. So with it having been sat for a while I don’t want to spend lots on it only for the effects of standing to render it off the road again. So today it’s having a new non-aircon drive belt fitted to bypass the compressor. (yes I know I could do it myself, but thinking I will get round to it is the reason it’s been sat for over 6 months) and then I’ll press it back into daily duties I think.
    Loved driving it to the garage today… forgot just how much I like this car!

    Hold the fricking front page.
    Mrs CSW has started the claim procedure. No value quoted to her yet, but she has been told its a write off.
    I have to take pictures and send them in, so they can determine their offer.
    Tomorrow I will be driving around until I find a mint condition black mk2 to take pictures of
    Mrs CSW started checking out ebay.
    She said she quite likes these

     

     
    My love of chod is rubbing off
    Also taking her to Dacia in Trowbridge tomorrow, just to sit in a Sandero Stepway and a Duster. Just in case she goes down the modern route. Not that I can afford new Dacias or even slightly old Dacias lol

    some not very helpful suggestions :
    get a paint pen and write “empty” on the cat ?
    wrap a load of barbed wire around it ?
    smear it in dogshit ? (although that might be a bit whiffy when you go for a drive and it heats up)
    i suppose you could remove it yourself and lock it away safe, fit a cheap de cat and swap it in for the mot ? 
    pain in the arse though, i simply gave up and sold the car

    Quietish side street at night. 
    No jack required. CRV's are high enough to get under without a jack.
    Now going to buy the Mrs something that's slammed
