CBA to type again, from fb. Reason why a 4 and half hour trip took 7.



George Pritchard The car, well, got it, seller rushed off, ran out of petrol idling at the yard, bought a jerry can and fuel from petrol station a couple of miles away, went back to start, battery flat, back to petrol station buy jump leads, go jump it and start driving. car starts dropping power and cutting out like 10 miles later on M11, pull over an check it out nothing obvious, Matt gives it a test drive, no issues and then drives it the 2hours home without it missing a beat?! -10 C in places and so thick fog we could barely see 20m in front as well as a huge diversion on the A11 or something, meant the journey took a fuck load longer than expected too. But, it's back finally!

Oh and forgot to say, sat nav took us to totally the wrong place to start with, totally lost, 40minutes away in the middle of the countryside with no signal to call anyone or reprogram my phones sat nav. Saw a phone box, went to use it for the first time ever to find it full of books instead?!

That's shitty man! Buuut, at least you have the car now

[Jorge]

[stinkinrich]

Soooo, how is it?

[Jorge]

Tell you later lol

[JonnyBoi]

Sweet, Need some pictures of it

Drove it to my grans last night without any issues, it really is awesome, noise is better, it is quicker, breaks better, clutch is better, gearbox is tighter, interior feels better. All round more awesome car. Just too high and I dislike the seats. I'll get some pictures of it from the history and will probably go shoot it very quickly on my grans driveway today as last night I forgot the card!!

Very awesome Jorge
