castros_bro Posted January 14, 2019 Share Posted January 14, 2019 Wooops, Steering went a bit un-assisted trying to navigate a mini roundabout somewhere is Surrey so parked and today am now en-route, using alternative transport, to GSF Farnham to get a few bottles of LHM (using VIP60 to get 60% discount so 10 GBP a liter). somewhatfoolish and Six-cylinder 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
castros_bro Posted January 20, 2019 Share Posted January 20, 2019 Welllll, that didn't go too well. Fed it 2L LHM and moved to a quiet residential road with parking near a friends house. Came back a couple of days later with a few tools for sort out a few basics, someone has been inside and ransacked both the screwdriver and the Stanley knife, someone (else?) in a white vehicle has twatted the backdoor and rear wheel arch, one tyre was flat and there's no spare so got out the blocks of wood to try the self lifting trick but "STOP + low fluid" lights came on and the driver's foot well is swimming in LHM. At least I can walk to 'Spoons for a Sunday fry-up and pint of TEA. On to plan B. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

castros_bro Posted January 20, 2019 Share Posted January 20, 2019 On the plus side I have got the radio working. On the minus side there's a rusted stump where the aerial should be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Six-cylinder Posted January 20, 2019 Share Posted January 20, 2019 Mrs6C was quite keen I got that Xantia Estate, but I have my eye on something else so stood back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eddie Honda Posted January 20, 2019 Share Posted January 20, 2019 On the minus side there's a rusted stump where the aerial should be. Not so much a minus, more of an opportunity! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
