    Going to luck at a car that was only put up 5 yesterday evening, decided I'd check the DD ad, and it's gone. FFS always happens, won't find anything as nice as that :(

    Most likely the fuse or the bulb holder at fault. Unless the monkey damaged the wiring removing the bumber (oh that's still connected!).

    Just swapped the bulb holder with the fog (exact same) problem still there... to find the fuse and see...

    Make a decent house, a double-decker bus would. You'd have to add some insulation and a bog. But it could be done. Great for a Summer Holiday.


    Also. Car wouldn't start this morning. Cranked, but not even a hiccup.

    Bricked a **** trying to figure out what it was. Was it flooded? Had it popped a seal or something? Went to pull the fuel-pump fuse so I could check if it was even getting a spark, and found that the fuse had already found its way out of the socket somehow. With obvious corrosion on the blades.

    Odd.

    But relieving too.

    Well, in Ireland all a car needs is alloy wheels and a sunroof and it'll have "all the extras".

    Sure what would anyone want air con in Ireland for!? Or leather seats, sure your arse would be stuck to them in the heat!

    etc

    No looking to buy a mk1 focus. 95% are lx the remaining 4.9% are zetec and the last .1% are ghia, which is the one I want. Just missed out on one today, only about 2/3 others in the country.

    It's always been the way. Lots of people buy the cheapest possible new car, drive it for 3 or 4 years and buy the newest one again.

    But they're Happy to do it. Unless everyone who wants a high spec buys new they can't really complain. Although in a lot of cases nowadays new cars are coming with a decent spec.
