Krzys Posted July 21, 2014 Author Share Posted July 21, 2014 Well been out twice and the lights now seem to work as expected so that's good. Still feeling quite "meh" about the car though Doesn't help that by cycling to work now as well as walking I'll be using it a lot less so fewer opportunities for it to win me back over. But as I've said before, I can't deal with changing for about a year at least as I'm fully committed to the holiday now and then when I return I'll be Christmas shopping or at least thinking about it! Things will undoubtedly change by then but for now I don't think I'll be doing any more mods for a while. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
feck_on_a_stick Posted July 21, 2014 Share Posted July 21, 2014 Chin up What about taking it to a local meet and drive on some fun roads? Get some enjoyment out of it that doesn't involve commuting. I know how you feel about stopping the mods for a while though. I loved taking mine up the coast last week but I'd love it even more if I could have a couple of months of driving without things needing changed on it.

Now I want something newer again Chin up What about taking it to a local meet and drive on some fun roads? Get some enjoyment out of it that doesn't involve commuting. I know how you feel about stopping the mods for a while though. I loved taking mine up the coast last week but I'd love it even more if I could have a couple of months of driving without things needing changed on it.There's almost nothing in the way of local meets and any that do happen I find boring! There's very little going on that I can take part in because I need to save money, otherwise I'd have been off on my mad day trips to Wales etc already but problems with the distributor and brakes saw to it that I didn't get to do any of it and now I don't have the money spare to Basically I'll only be going to the pub on a Thursday for a coke with friends (not every week) and then whatever I need to do at the weekend.

feck_on_a_stick Posted July 21, 2014 Share Posted July 21, 2014 I was about to suggest even a couple of handbrake turns in the pub carpark to put a smile on your face before remembering that your brakes are one of the things giving you jip lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
