Got to ask Art, how much?




800bucks plus road tax, its mot'ed until july,
looking through the bills .. its had a new injector pump

im ordering an injector pump gasket kit for the leaky one... looks like a challenge though,
im wonderin if it leaking due to the low sulfur fuel..

fixed the injector pump with new seals, as per the vid, total cost £14..

just sold the 1st car today for 1k,
bought it for £1400 over 3 yrs ago so cant complain,
 £133 a year  depreciation...

the guys who bought it had to make sure their stretcher would fit in the back...

so they can bring so they can bring bodies from the hospital


as they are funeral directors....

this afternoon was like carry on embalming...

They must be pretty small bodies they're carrying !

I can only lie down in the back of the Mondy with the front seat "quite far" forwards - and I know the Audi's are smaller as my Guv'nor has one.

Good resale, though.

i did make sure they were happy with the size....
they said they had seen some aweful estate cars out there,

they were quite happy with the stretcher diagonally,
with the passenger seat well forward, one of em can sit in the back if need be...

well they turned up this morning....
full of banter,
all suited and booted...with their stretcher, big red drape with gold tassels....and went of to pick up the 1st passenger ...
they have just opened another chapel of rest in town today and their really busy..
i did say i wont look forward to traveling in it again....

but they said oh if ya ever need a lift....?

sometimes i just have to pinch myself ...
