beko1987 Posted April 12, 2022 Share Posted April 12, 2022 I've still got the dc25 from rich, mighty tempted to modify it to be a bit more compact and stick it in the car for mouse nest removal, it did a bloody good job and ran off the generator really well which is a bonus Six-cylinder 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mmmmmaybe, because I'm starting to get old and I'd rather not do 300 miles in a day as it's exhausting, especially in a car that prefers 50 to 70. Depends what I'm up to on the weekend.

Zelandeth Posted April 14, 2022 Share Posted April 14, 2022 I'll be bringing over fuel line, fuel, jack and tools necessary to get the flat tyre on the Cavalier swapped over. With the fuel line replaced hopefully it just wants the points cleaning up then it should fire up again. Six-cylinder 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was going to ask how the boat was doing but it looks like the usual train service I use, from Euston to MKC is unavailable due to rail-works , *sigh* seems like everything is trying to stop me from getting to the FoD (and getting the REV plushy) for some reason LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Six-cylinder Posted April 14, 2022 Author Share Posted April 14, 2022 Its a sad goodbye time again. I have had this 325i SE manual E30 for over 10 years and thoroughly enjoyed it. I had a friend from the BMW club who asked to buy it and in line with my feet reduction policy I let her have it. This car was used by the band The 1975 for there music video Somebody else while I owned it.

chaseracer Posted April 15, 2022 Share Posted April 15, 2022 Looks like I will make it tomorrow after all. The Dyane will get another run out, and may get its brake pads changed if I remember to bring them. I also have some new wheels to paint before the 145 XZXs go on...
