of money etc, and when they are low on money will skimp on car maintenance and then lump the problem onto someone else. Its a hard lesson to be learnt - I too have been bitten by "their a club member" thing (not the FTOOC club) and ended up losing many thousands of pounds too, so I know how you feel. Stevie s 24-02-2011, 16:34 What have you decided to do now? Suprised Darren_S2 has made no comment at all on this thread. It's gonna be the bloody end of me, this car, I swear...but at least now I've made a decision, I can get on with saving..working..saving...working and so on until I've got the lot to do it all at once. Then I'll be back off down to Guildford where The Bish (I'm bucking the trend...this car is DEFINATELY a bloke...no girl would cause this amount of trouble, and expect cash too..lol!) will spend a few days being put right. Hoping for end of April...probably looking more like 2nd week in May. But yup...He's a keeper...well...for the next few years or so anyways :D Hope that it all works out, and nothing else goes wrong in the meantime...oh listen to me..ever the pessimist..lmao! Have decided too, that everything that goes on the car is gonna be new....not doing pre-owned this time..I'm probably crazy..but at least if I buy all new stuff, the chances of anything coming out of the woodwork and biting me on the butt are slimmer...she says..
