trigger got a reaction from HMC in The new news 24 thread
After all the hassle I've be having from my modern Focus TDCi things have started to improve, I spent £484 on having this new fuel pump fitted and after getting it home on Saturday it seemed nothing had changed as it was still a bugger to start, luckily yesterday and today it's been perfect and the range has gone from 37mpg to 43mpg so I'm hoping it's settled down now.
In Cortina news when I dropped the seats ofg to the trimmers they recommended a local shop that colour matches vinyl spray paint so I went along to their warehouse this morning, http://www.bradleysmart.co.uk, £66 worse off i've now got 5 cans of colour matched paint and a 1ltr of prepclean on order so I can finish of the interior.
After this last week my bank account has never looked so low.

Gold bodywork. Brown bumpers. Beige interior. Red coach stripes. Whoever specced this one up was obviously a person of exceptionally refined tastes.

The_Bollocks makes a good point Trig, can't think of any safer investment than an old Ford..... And it'll be pretty damn cool when it's done.

Keep the faith Trig... you're spending money on a cool old Ford - the rules of investment and return are a lot different on those things compared to pretty much everything else on the road. I'm sure you won't be tipping money into a black hole like I tend to do, on 'interesting but utterly worthless' shitheaps.

That needs buying! But what a shitter about the diesel Dutch laws, I hope that doesn't happen over here.

Just heard about this after being away from AS for a while, count me in! I will let the side down I'm afraid as will be turning up in a modern car. However it is a Jaguar, so something may stop working and everybody can stare at the black engine cover whilst I call the RAC.

Cougar has had a last minute reprieve. Mate of mine decided it was too nice to scrap so it's no longer on Death Row awaiting its final piggy back ride.

Mild asperger' s syndrome. Men are more prone to autism than women, so our hobbies generally revolve around collecting things, or facts about things.
Anyway, I don't see how obsessing over the private lives of celebrities, or reading magazines about dresses, are any less shit and sad than trainspotting.

trigger reacted to messerschmitt owner in The further adventures of MO's skip
Well, the skip news is as follows!
Picked up the new roof for the Pug yesterday - having a chat with a very nice man who works for the company that makes such things as body panels for Ford Cortinas, using the original presses (and super duper Aston Martins too). Needs a new window, but I should be able to unzip my current one and replace it.
Just bought a bargainous £79 hardtp off Ebay (in gold) for the car too - have to collect it from Royston, Herts, but I'll be quite close on Saturday or Sunday next weekend. It'll be a bit hectic - as I will have Trigger's cortina wings too.
