As per, theres not much to update because this things ashamefully reliable. Still on the lookout at Si's on Ebay and a few that i'd go for are popping up, which is annoying, but at the same time I know there are still some good ones out there.

Heres some pics of the "Mobile Disco" as someone put it, Its been in for a month or two now, but never got round to pics. Its good because you can't really hear it on the outside, thought it'd be an echoey tin can, but I don't look like such a chav if I want to whack it up,

Also a pic of the roof properly, so you can see why I hate the look of it so much Summers coming I can get rid of the stupid stickers on the side

Glad its still running great, its exactly what it was needed for.

Yep, Might be slow and a little tedious on motorway/dual carriageway journeys, but its going without any extra cost, which is exactly what I need at the moment

Lol ok so your thinking "idiot spend money on his rubbish looking car and it'll look even worse" well.. Your right! Heres my new "Aero Rims" Air freshener, So bad that I actually think it looks kinda cool!



And also keep strolling past these in my shop. I know there cheap but would these actually be any good? I can imagine maybe better than a sponge or something..




Also got my MOT and Tax in 2 months, Thats very bad times because of money atm, even with a job im getting money.

But that does also mean i've owned the car for 6 months now! Blimey.. With no problems either, so if anyones looking for a cheap runabout in a feew months time you know where to find one!

nice er rims

Passenger door nearly fell off on my girlfriend last night, Could get it shut, turns out one of the bolts holding the middle bracket has come out so when I can be bothered I need to find another bolt thing for that I think.

Also getting problems like I used to in the fiesta now with the misfire, starting to get worse, when I drive it stops giving me power when i don't put my foot down, and when i do it bumps back into action, can be embarrasing when driving along in first putting it in second and it suddenly loses power and i fly foward

Is this thing still alive Chris? lol. Why hasnt it died yet! ITS FRENCH!

_________________

lol mine did that when the pipe that connects the MAF to the inlet came off.
But as your car is french i just think it's probably dying

She's still alive! -23/02/2017

I know yell me about it. 6 months without anything but misfire, which is getting better at the mo. :S it's French but only ha one owner and been treated well (except bodywork) so I'm guessing that and low mileage has alot to do with it.

Too skint. I got the filters and plus changed when I got
it. Unfortunately I had bought the wrong leads on eBay lol was meantto be a full service but meergot round to the rest with my mate -.- oh well. I have already assumed that might fix the problem lol

What the hell happened?

nothing I went to the scrap yard to get that small bolt for my door, (which I broken the bracket anyway, so the door shut and opened and the bolt was useless -.-)

Turned out exactly the same car was just sat there!

MOT tommorow midday :O

Thought it couldn't have been that bad, good luck with the MOT.

Haha that picture I posted pretty much represents the state of my car very soon.

I have one and a half pages of Failures.

Welding, CV joint, Sus mount, 2 tyres, Brakes + Pads, New Cat for emissions. Etc. The list adds up to £300-400 + So erm.. Yeah. Anyone got a cheap car for sale?

As you are thinking it may be worth buying another cheap 'banger' to get another year of cheap motoring.

Nothing on the list you can do yourself on the cheap?

_________________

Nope could put washer fluid in and point them in the right direction? They can do the headlights for free.. but theres just so much stuff on the list that I can't do And its all the expensive stuff So annoyed.

I'm scouting ebay now to find something, there was a couple last time so hopefully I can find one or two this time near me. Just can't seem to catch a break at the moment!

_________________

Tommorow I view a corsa -.- but its the 1.4 version so a good 88bhp normally If that fails then my feet are going to be used alot more than they should be

_________________

buying cheap doesnt have to mean bad... the problem is you have to know what your looking at and what you can leave and what needs doing. to keep it going...buy something with 12 months ticket on it..run it till it drops..around 12 months usually...repeat cycle!

Jam.
