  1. What do you keep your cows in? Wing mirror in the boot didn't work, the bottom plastic thread was slightly cracked so wouldn't tighten. Only worked it out after the billionth time digging the screw out behind my bottle storage All the fun of working in car doors £6 delivered from eBay got another passenger mirror Plus side is that it is smooth as silk for adjustment. Lobbed a cheap Bluetooth mechless player I had in the garage in. Not the sexiest thing, but will do. This led to the discovery of mono sound Drivers side is missing a speaker. New pair of cheapies ordered from Amazon so that stereo should be restored. It's a great wee car - took a trip to the big lights of Kirkcaldy which on the b roads meant was a hoot to drive.
  2. Inflation etc no doubt. Thanks for the lead
  3. Forgot about boot full of spares! Will have a look That's a good lead - had a gander and comes in at £60 delivered which is a bit steep for me That is lovely
  4. Been off diving for the last couple of weeks - but day before I picked up the Roffle AX. It has been sitting outside the house for the last couple of weeks - jumped in it to go to the shops and has started straight on the key. The non starting issue seems to have solved itself. As Bucketeer suggested, the 1.5D powerhouse of an engine means you become A Man of Momentum[emoji2400] Still has 3/4 of a tank of fuel after doing 160 miles - which is nice. Jobs to do on it Source and fit replacement gear knob Passenger door mirror replacement The alternator is whining a lot - it needs replacing. Ideally find some diesel front springs and unlower it - the ride at front is quite crashy on bumpy roads. The Saab is coming off the road for the following things Swap out front driveshafts to deal with abs issue Fit all new rear handbrake shoes and mechanism Fit new rear brake calipers Fit new rear brake flexis Fit new rear wheel bearing to passenger side Fit front discs and pads Think a out swapping out the alternator (although looks a shit job) Try to get it diagnosed with Tech2 for the rad fans - they aren't coming on Bit of a service BMW has developed a slow rear puncture which is annoying when tyres are date coded 21. Motorhome needs a service and then a run out. Not been used much this year.
  5. Has anyone had a go at auto testing? I have seen that there is an event at Blackburn Services in Feb . I quite fancy taking starlet along, but would like to know what is involved.
