I love cars, there convinenent and get me home and to the base/work with no hassel. But when they go wrong, boy do they...

This morning was simple, get in to the polo, take it to the garage for a pre MOT, so at the end of the month i could sell it or scrap it and put the dosh towards the T2.

Firstly there was a Parking ticket on the polo for parking on a 6 m wide pavement, issued at 0722 on a saturday morning. nice.

Then i drove to the garage, dropped it in, ot a phone call from my girlfriend saying the audi has just cut out and keeps doing so above 1500 revs.
Recovery came out and it started, then this afternoon it did it again so we got towed to the garage and left it with them, the polo needs:

2 x front bearings
poss rear bearings
exaust re-welding
few bulbs
front lowere arm

which means when the MOT expires in june 16th, Its straight down the scrappies!

Roll on the T2, no more polo.
