cursed it. Got back to the railway station tonight to find it sitting with the hazard lights flashing, must have inadvertently hit to button getting out the car. Needless to say the battery was too flat to start the car, so walk home to get my dad's trusty Volvo 740 with a set of jump leads, got it started then after getting back home had to walk back down the station to pick it up.

definitely not the best location for the hazard flasher button.

Finally got around to removing the front bumper to replace the broken fog light mount, however the adhesive of choice had to be applied at a very specific temperature, after careful cleaning and priming of the two dissimilar plastics that form the bumper and mounting.

Just as well my better half was at work really, I rather value my testicles



I get away with quite a lot more than most, however bumper on the dining room table................

We've all been there over some vehicle related matter.
My recent V6 addition is "A 2 litre, a fraction bigger engine than the 1.8." The "V6" has been kept quiet so far as she still remembers the bills from the V8 we had in the seventies!!!

Just got back from the petrol station to put in some fresh go juice as it hadn't been filled since its test last August.
