Cookiesouwest Posted April 20, 2021 Author Share Posted April 20, 2021 Was on holiday last week. Went away. Left Disastra in the street. My neighbours can't park very well. Either she has been scuffed by a multi colour car or three separate ones. Some of my neighbours are cock wombles. rainagain, Split_Pin, andyberg and 3 others 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, exactly the same place Yup sat in the back, done my driving and now I'm home, easy day. It pisses me off when neighbours scrape cars then say nothing. The micra got done by the giffer 2 doors down. Then when they see you it's as if nothing has happened 😠 I need a red hot poker or a packet of nails accidentally * dropped by their wheels.

Cookiesouwest Posted April 21, 2021 Author Share Posted April 21, 2021 Suzi has been to the garage today, due to a persistent clanking sound from the rear. Diagnosed as a bodged previous repair, where a exhaust hanger had been stuck on with sealant and was moving around and hitting the exhaust. Sealant removed. Hanger welded. 30 quid job. Picture for no other reason, than she is my favourite. Next up, try to get to the bottom of her hiccups on low throttle. May chuck a new coil pack and plugs on and see if it cures the issue. andyberg 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cookiesouwest Posted April 30, 2021 Author Share Posted April 30, 2021 Ummmmm Mrs CSW just bought a car on ebay. I'm in shock. We are on a weekend break in Blue Anchor, North Somerset. Car located in next village! Possible collection thread tomorrow, along with me explaining the circumstances for this unlikely and unexpected purchase. I have already explained to Mrs CSW, she needs to give a poo count, take pictures of any food she eats and pose for a picture with one foot on front bumper. Her exact response was 'I'm not doing any of that weird stuff you get up too on that shitbangers website' Crackers, Barry Cade, Low Horatio gearbox and 11 others 2 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cookiesouwest Posted May 1, 2021 Author Share Posted May 1, 2021 So, hopefully collection day today. Background - I've been looking for a modern, to replace the Astra and Wagon R, so all resources can be concentrated on the needy R75. Thanks to Zopa the potential budget was going to be about 8k. Difficult for me to get my head round, as I've not spent more than 900 quid on a car, in at least the last 10 yrs. I'd been looking at mk3 / mk4 CRVs and mk8 civics due to their boring reliability.

Cookiesouwest Posted May 1, 2021 Author Share Posted May 1, 2021 So last night as we were driving down here, I asked her to check ebay for a car I had my eye on. Mrs CSW reported it had gone over a grand with 4hrs left. I said fine, I wasn't going to bid, as frankly still struggling with the over a grand issue. Anyway, we got to Blue Anchor, she had a couple of wines and unbeknown to me, she bid on it. Imagine my surprise, when at 9.30pm ish, she informed me she had won the auction. Imagine my sheer effing panic, that she may have massively overpaid for a car. She knows as much about car values, as I do about particle physics. Thankfully she didn't.

andyberg Posted May 1, 2021 Share Posted May 1, 2021 Ah we welcome a new member to the fold. You have taught her well... 😂 Or she is trying to say 'at least with this new car we can travel together' 😂 Cookiesouwest 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cookiesouwest Posted May 1, 2021 Author Share Posted May 1, 2021 The price paid? £1701. So Mrs CSW has saved me £6299 In the finest traditions of AS, this is what Mrs CSW had for breakfast. I'm not sure she is taking this seriously I had this, cause I am a grown up The dogs had lamb with Harrington They liked it Then we took them for a walk More to follow GMcD, Jim Bell, Coprolalia and 7 others 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cookiesouwest Posted May 1, 2021 Author Share Posted May 1, 2021 Contact with seller made. Who it turns out is not the owner. Mrs CSW worrying she's bought a dodgy motor. Told her not to worry. Insurance policy sorted. Can pick up after 4pm. So you will have to put up with sporadic (crap phone signal here) updates of everything we eat for the rest of the day. Poo count Me - 0 Mrs CSW - absolutely refuses to confirm cause she is a Lady. I reckon 1 andyberg and Shite Ron 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
