[Cooper1]

Mpg is improving too, from the 9mpg to the dizzying heights of 16......

Old girl doing me proud  

 

  

She's proving quite the dailying machine, no issues........... 

 

ahem... 

 

I'll reget that..

The old bus is doing relatively well doing daily duties  it's haunting the local petrol station. 

 

Few fixes have taken place.. 

 

1) I've had an ABS pump on the shelf for 2yrs waiting to be fitted as it has an intermittent fault with the pressure switch on the body of the pump, a 2nd hand sensor is £150 or a 2nd hand pump assembly with all the trimmings is..... £150 so i went for that.. 

 

Swapped my "new" accumulator sphere on to the new/old pump and thankfully the lights haven't come on since  

 

Then immediately it shat an abs sensor...... - so replaced that...... 

 

and then a week later another abs sensor... ha ha ha fucking thing... 

 

 

Since then i've just driven it. 

It's really filthy at the moment, I usually like to keep my cars clean but she hasn't had a wash since the MOT 

 

still love it though drives a dream just needs endless tinkering, part of the fun if yer in to that  

 

Its now got a pulley bearing on the engine screeching to itself so got one ordered will fit that when it comes. 

Needs a tank of fuel... 

 

All standard RR things really

spotted another out in the wild... 

I do remember spotting these years ago and they were quite common, 10-15yrs ago when I wer a lad. 

Now not so much.....
