Cavcraft Posted February 3, 2015 Author Share Posted February 3, 2015 I can get it there probably Saturday, Tim. I don't know when they'll get to test it, probably next week at a guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cavcraft Posted February 3, 2015 Author Share Posted February 3, 2015 Sadly I've just had to declare myself oot on the Astra. Outside forces... Public apology to Billy. None required, Eddy, cheers for trying. eddyramrod 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobT Posted February 3, 2015 Share Posted February 3, 2015 I'm enjoying this thread, it just keeps getting grimmer! Mk3 Astra WIN. Is the 1.4 auto glacial, as wouldn't mind trying one at some point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cavcraft Posted February 4, 2015 Author Share Posted February 4, 2015 For a laugh I've put this in Gumtree for £130. The first person wants to know if it runs and will drive away and how much fuel is in it. I said it's got about £1's worth of juice and the battery might be flat. 'Will you get another battery?' No, I'm not getting another battery for it. Person number two chomping at the bit and wants to view tonight. I hope he turns up with the full asking price or he's going to walk away as he came, empty headed. Taff 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cavcraft Posted February 4, 2015 Author Share Posted February 4, 2015 He's only seen a picture of the bonnet so far. If he's not disappointed when he gets here I'm going to be so suspicious I'll shall spend my life savings (£11) in tracking down his export gang.I can't help thinking this will be a dole cheat chariot or will be on Look North West with my mate* Lucy Meacock describing a ram raid on Aldi by someone in a shit Renault. *She's not my mate but I twice said hello to her when walking my dog.

Timewaster Posted February 4, 2015 Share Posted February 4, 2015 This is possible, as Aldi are doing battery chargers tomorrow morning from 9pm.Sadly, this is not true. Jump packs yes, chargers no. I don't need a jump pack. Or a FUBAR Renault for that matter. oldcars 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Station Posted February 4, 2015 Share Posted February 4, 2015 If the jump pack comes in yellow, is surrounded in plastic, and looks like this: Don't buy it, it will last a few charges and then die. My dad, for some reason had about five in succession. He had to jump his Mondeo now and then as the starter was full of DMF swarf. My mum bought me one, it sat in the garage until my dad needed to borrow it, and it lasted one jump start and then died. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
