This has to go back soon and I no longer get test cars...

Since I no longer work for Parkers/CAR.

Need a sensible car. So, deploy this:

But first...

I'e never had that happen before. The metal bit of the valve stem popped out when I tried to undo a stiff valve cap!

So. First stop, a tyre place!

But wait.

What's this?

Better.

Top down is the only way!

Never heard of a valve doing that before, good spot!

Shiny valve:

Stop to charge...

The phone, not the car. The mount fell off the vent and the magsafe released.

It has been correctly identified!

Successful trip home, definitely need to do the transfer box but it didn't miss a beat. Or a gap in traffic. I did wind the front windows down when about to pass a traffic officer though 😂

Hopefully you had a better buying experience than I did and all claims made for the vehicle turn out to be true.

Well, it made it home - when it comes to cars that cost as much as three major components from a breaker I consider that a win?

And another win...

At first I thought that was some kind of adult version of when we were kids and put rattly things in our bicycle wheel spokes.. 😛

Fixed? Well done sir!! 

Closed, sliding, but not fixed as if you try and sync it/open to vent position it jams again. Common fault, a rebuild kit is available and I'll do it after I've sorted the transmission :)
