Been a very busy three weeks.
Wifes MK1 went for it’s MOT, they rang up to say that the front shox were shot and 3 brake lines. Being a tad busy I told them to get on with it. Then they rang the wife and said that one of the springs was snapped, she thought I had a spare pair from the other golf ( I seemed to remember chucking them away!) anyway I rushed home could not find them, so told the garage I would drop of the struts and springs from the other golf in the morning… That was duly done and that car was sorted…….
On the morning of dropping off the shox, we went out to the Scorpio, got loaded up and then found that the drivers window was in a server state of disrepair. As was the lower dash and steering collumn cowling. I was not a Happy chappy.. It was bank holiday weekend and it took from that friday morning until the following wednesday for the glass company to sort it ( so much for emergency glass cover!! )
I was now a little worried about the vunerability of my car, and decided that the drive space where the Golf project was needed to be reclaimed. So, the Sierra was driven onto the drive , and the Golf pushed into the garage where it was cut into manageable chunks and parts stripped.. A sad end.
The garage was then tidied up and the sierra driven back in!!!
Yes she drives, stops and turns. The exhaust is useless but I am getting there!
