Big development!

Genuine OEM NOS rubber mats arrived. No car is complete with decent mats. 

Morse code motif is pretty cool.

Those are braille floor mats for the blind.

I bought a cheese grater for my blind friend, he said it was the most violent book he has ever read !!

That's sad, do the scrap yards take them or are there lots of hoops to jump through? 

I guess we're gonna find out!

[Surface Rust]

At least it waited until you'd replaced it before shitting itself. Small mercies and all that.

Jim Bell scraps a car shock horror!

Hopefully it won't get fragged and will end its days on the Mongolian Steppe.

This sounds like an offer to deliver. 

YOU ALL HEARD HIM! THAT'S LEGALLY BINDING

[Momentary Lapse Of Reason]

Would the place that did the battery refurb buy it for spares?

Right, you're on. You'll pay my train fare home, yeah? Isn't that the way these things work?

Nah. They're an ev specialist and it was a part ex against an ev. They might have it tp fettle and sell on but insurance is up and I'm not keen on reinsuring it to find out. 

Its served me pretty bloody well considering but it's time has come I think. 

Unless someone wants it for scrap money to do their own high voltage fiddling on  over the next couple of days.

Fettling an ELV Prius… an electric shock from an EV battery is just like a HT shock from a Morris Marina isn’t it?  Nothing to worry about, just a minor zap?

I fully approve and you hereby receive the Lord Sterling seal of approval:

If you end up in poobo again I'll give you a lift to wherever the bloody thing is (but I don't do Paston after 6pm).
