wuvvum Posted January 11, 2008 Share Posted January 11, 2008 Isn't it funny that every car that is advertised on eBay with a broken cambelt always broke down either pulling out of the driveway or idling in traffic? You never see an advert saying "the cambelt broke at 7,000rpm overtaking a lorry on the B1234". Interesting... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You never see an advert saying "the cambelt broke at 7,000rpm overtaking a lorry on the B1234". Interesting...Could quite possibly have been reversing off the drive in a "revving to 6 grand slipping clutch"kinda way too. I wouldn't have thought the engine speed would bear a huge amount of relation to damage done and repair work needed. If pistons hit valves it'd get messy whatever....

You never see an advert saying "the cambelt broke at 7,000rpm overtaking a lorry on the B1234". Interesting...Someone more mechanically minded me suggested that probably is the case, in that at idle and low speed the firing is a bit more lumpy causing more stress on the belt.

I know what I’m trying to say…Good point. But then the firing gets even more lumpy when you bounce off the rev limiter... It's true though that a lot of cambelts do go either on startup from cold or very shortly thereafter. I just think it's strange that I've never seen a single car on the Bay advertised as having had the belt go at high revs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I reversed into one of those a matter of months before I qualified for protected NCD. I'm 99% sure the Thema driver was drunk but I couldn't call the police out because I was 100% sure I had no tax or MOT. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Richard Posted January 11, 2008 Share Posted January 11, 2008 It is indeed, although the Porker that received the plate is at least the right age for the plate.I am praying that Mercedes put out a model called the SL520GT, because that's the number on my wife's car.

wuvvum Posted January 13, 2008 Share Posted January 13, 2008 If I'd had the space to keep it I would have kept my Commer Walkthrough burger van. I paid less than a tenth of the price of that one for it, and it was a great old thing. Ended up going to Cornwall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
