🚨L1's 🇫🇷 shenanigans. En Ecosse 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

[AxWomble]

How’s the Partner performing now that it’s *working? Plotting for when I inevitably swap for something with a 2.0 HDI….

[loserone]

Eleven seconds, but spinning the wheels in first, second AND third.  

 

I need to get some decent tyres on it, at the moment it has insaturbos on (and it's wet)

[loserone]

Also,

the airbag needs reseating (driver's airbag open circuit since I swapped the Com2000 unit for an ebay one to free up the one which was working fine but belongs to another car) so airbag light showing

the ABS is not communicating with the ECU (but lexia talks to it just fine) so STOP, EML and brake warning lights showing

The BSI is out of a berlingo (so requires Lexia not Peugeot Planet) - need to source a Peugeot one

I haven't enabled the cruise stalk

I need to upgrade to the two line centre display from a high spec 206 to be able to see the content of it.

 

 

And after sitting for six months, it seems to need a wheelbearing.

[loserone]

All of the above still applies, so I've just done the obvious thing and sold the CR-V

[loserone]

Put some wheels and tyres on it.

Much better, and now the back wheels aren't sticking out the sides and the front wheels don't sit too far under the arches, because they're the right offset and it no longer has spacers on the back.

[loserone]

Oh shit aye and I bought a car

 

I've had this 106 before but only for a couple of days before someone else needed it more than I.  Now it's being useful as a backup car.

[loserone]

[Split_Pin]

Smashing area that. I really enjoyed my drive/visit there in the summer.

[loserone]

Aye, I'd definitely like to avoid having to move away.

[loserone]

Tyres work!

 

[Supernaut]

That looks absolutely ace on the 205 wheels!

However those particular wheels seem to benefit almost anything they get bolted to. Such a classic design.

Was it you or @Lacquer Peelthat was there at U Pull It when there was a 306 1.9D with them on and someone working there claimed they were worth more than they were selling the car for?

Think I was with you and they were talking shite

They were absolutely talking shite, I got a set without tyres for £50 earlier this year.

Borrowing the battery from the 205..

Think the embedded video above perhaps isn't working, but this was the poorly filmed first start

Worked for me, which is unusual because embedded videos on here usually only reward me with a spinning wheel 5ever

[loserone]

Won a French thing

[garbaldy]

A whole £1.30 nice one 😁

[loserone]

The fuck have I done

[loserone]

Bought a thing.

 

The vendor was burning office chairs behind their family run garage in a County Durham pit village

[loserone]

This nice French thing was nearby.  Sadly not the purchase

[loserone]

@Jimbob McGregor kindly agreed to come along and help check it out.  

 

As we drove along I said " is my exhaust getting a bit louder?" 

 

Then the back box fell off the 106

Each to their own bud, but whyve you bought a rusty wiper arm?

[AxWomble]

The anticipation is killing me! 

 

[loserone]

Cause it's attached to a nine seater low cost big liability

[garbaldy]

A half snap but no windows and a grand cheaper.

[loserone]

Three hundred quid! There's a van in Boro for that with no engine..

[garbaldy]

Yup it sure was (MOT failure mind) and parked behind my other 400 quid bargain
