Well, took it to work today. This is the car sold as being pretty undriveable.
And it was fine! Was apprehensive as breaking down is not on many folk's to do list but started fine, and did the 7 miles to work and back without a murmur - and this was it covered in heavy frost this morning, and damp as anything on the way home.
Strange. Not complaining mind. Love the drive, really solid. Lovely steering and no rattles or clonks. Not bad for less than £500 bought and MOT'd! No doubt things well not be well for too long but good so far. Couple of other things to attend to - passenger window doesn't work and fiddly stuff but all in good time.
Lucky though -best keep away from others when the wine has been downed!
