Nice by-the-book* recovery. 

Did the pickup notice that it was pulling anything? 😂

You ain’t seen nothin ! 
 

This lil fiat was my loan car for about 4 years and didn’t put a foot wrong . I sold it to a friend because the customers were being a pain in the ass about it . It was replaced with a Grande Punto .

About a month ago my mate reported hgf issues and couldn’t be bothered having it done so I bought it back . 
 

The lease is up ( ha ) on the E Up in nov so this may be my other half’s car for a while . Back down to earth with a bump for her 😂

Easy HG change if so.

Great engines.

Yeh . Engine of champions . My current loaner is a FIRE too . 
I’m going full minge bag on this one - eBay bargain bucket parts . Found a BGA head set for £10.50 , bolts for £9 . GSF have a belt for a fiver and a tensioner for a fiver too . Just need to see which water pump version it is before I go shopping for that 😂

Off with its head !

 

I know the workshop is a tip - my other building I use for bike storage etc is having a new roof fitted so it’s cluttering my main shed . And this is in the long term bay / ramp . I’m lucky in that I have 3 ramps for two workers 😂
