So hoping my car is ready for collection from Mitsubishi tomorrow. Dropped it off last saturday for repairs - suspected broken antiroll bar bush/clamp/somethingorother - and told them i'd be back for it in 1 week, i.e. tomorrow now.
Been a busy week and really want to take the car for a blast sometime this weekend - weather is for bright sunshine and 6 - 7 degrees all weekend, its gona fly in those sort of conditions

Best of luck... even my diesel turbo is flying in this weather!!

The noise turned out to be quite serious - yesterday the gearbox blew !!!

Starting to loose patience now.

by **WR1 Bro** » Mon Nov 28, 2005 11:52 am

NO... bad luck matey!

Better now than when it is 3 years old!!

Yup, good it happened now but tbh once its fixed this time I recon it'll go - this is the last straw and ive been thinking of using the money from it for a new house for a while now. Have asked Mitsi what they'll offer me for it.

A year or so away from expensive cars seems quite appealing just now - then maybe a 911 (997) in '07.

You gotta keep it till after Feb06 (RR)

by **POESY** » Mon Nov 28, 2005 12:15 pm

No chance, want it long gone by then - by the end of this week would be nice.

Feeling particularly fcuked off right now

by **stijoy** » Mon Nov 28, 2005 12:20 pm

here's hoping you get what you are looking for [price]

by **WR1 Bro** » Mon Nov 28, 2005 12:22 pm

Gutted for you Poesy...

What are you thinking of driving around in instead of the 400?

by **POESY** » Mon Nov 28, 2005 12:23 pm

My high powered 1.2 16v clio MR FQ 75 :wink:

by **WR1 Bro** » Mon Nov 28, 2005 12:25 pm

NO! :OMG: No disrespect to your Clio... but that would be a tought time in my opinion!

by **POESY** » Mon Nov 28, 2005 2:21 pm

I recon I could hack it for a year or so. Specially as it may be the means to a shinny new house + 911

by **WR1 Bro** » Mon Nov 28, 2005 2:30 pm

Property is always the way forward in my book!!

by **POESY** » Mon Nov 28, 2005 3:24 pm

Well been meaning to move up for a while now - so I guess this is my chance. Plus looked at a lovely 911 GT3 yesterday, defo my type of car - lovely

Just got a call from mitsubishi - Mr Clark your gearbox is broken.

Err, yes, I know :brick:

What did you do, put it in 1st at 90 ?

Err, no, that would have blown the engine :brick:

I think this may be a long drawn out process :roll:
