Split_Pin Posted February 17, 2018 Share Posted February 17, 2018 I always said when I was a kid that one day I wanted to restore an old car. Scrabbling around under a car on axle stands, in a cramped garage, one job becoming totally unrewarding because you've found rust, rust and more rust, pissing about with pipes and wiring, aching bones the next day because I was trying to torque up bolts whilst sitting at an awkward angle. I do not find that fun. Childhood dream shattered! I feel just like selling up and getting a modern, enjoy family time and taking up running again in my spare time. tooSavvy and stonedagain 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do not find that fun. Childhood dream shattered! I feel just like selling up and getting a modern, enjoy family time and taking up running again in my spare time.I had a day like that yesterday trying to sort out the Bora going into limp mode, spent far longer than I'd like under the car trying to remove bolts from the turbo, got there eventually and cleaned the VNT vanes with Mr Muscle, reassembly was a lot easier but it's achieved the square root of fuck all as it is still going into limp mode when you are on full boost for more than a couple of seconds, I've just about had enough and once I've paid some debts I'll probably buy or lease something new.

Jerzy Woking Posted February 17, 2018 Share Posted February 17, 2018 Was woken at 3am with a terrible earache. Tried putting a heatpack on it, and all I get now is a gurgling noise 5 hours later and increasing discomfort. It's doing my head in - especially as ive put nothing in my ears recently. anyone have any remedies as it's stopping me from doing what I had planned this morning - my first Saturday off since Christmas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably not as much of a knobrocket as the person who drives this car and has only just noticed one headlight bulb doesn't work Wipe them ONCE ,with a cellulose thinners soaked rag really fast . Don't do it again until the melted skin has totally hardened, otherwise it drags with a second wipe and makes a mess of it Cavcraft 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Timewaster Posted February 17, 2018 Share Posted February 17, 2018 Split Pin, feel your pain. A Newish MX5 would give you all the wind in the beard, country pub lunch, MGB lifestyle ideals with none of the scuffed knuckles, back pain and constant misery of a collection of crap that never works.
