Hi,
Excellent suggestion ed; cheap reliable motoring with reliability. I had seriously considered buying a Dacia Duster 4WD but it's a bit too big just for the two of us.
It's so easy to become trapped with an old car; once they start to go wrong spend a lot on one repair just to get going again then it starts with repair after repair ending up with "I can't get rid of it because I've spent so much on it". It cost a friend £700 to get her car through the MOT and the major problem was an air bag circuit board; it's not just the money involved but the huge inconvenience because cars seldom break down at a good time?
A very difficult call to make Rob but don't be hasty because after all the fault on your car might prove to be something very trivial in which case you could then run the car knowing you will eventually have to change it giving you time to look around.
Looks like your lathe restorations will now be on hold a bit longer Rob until your car is sorted out?
Kind regards, Col.
