Your mum has been to that scrappy with you, and I'm sure she is a very nice woman. After all, she puts up with you for the long summer break

Agreed Jaime.......but i doubt Tunnie wants to clean her

She puts up with a lot, all the mud i bring in... and shouting and cursing when working on the car...

My dad just got back from the Isle of Man, he has a big project up there at the moment. Spends all week there, comes back on weekends.

He left on Monday, I had the Reflection in the garage, in the time he's be away i've sold it and bought another!!

He also suggested while we have an estate, clear out all the rubbish in the loft!! - Got me a 300 quid bin lorry with leather seats  8-)

Well, I've seen the car, and its not too bad.

We've had a little tinker today and resolved some problems.

Remaining bad points:
EML on - air intake temp sensor reckons its at 350F. We'll try and get one from scrappy.
Washer pump seized, again replacement required from scrappy.
Leccy seats - nothing worked, we've now got most passenger side working (front height is still seized), drivers we haven't touched yet.
Leccy mirrors - may be related to drivers set.
Tyres are borderline.
Stereo not working (loom needs reconnecting, looks like its had an aftermarket poorly fitted).
Unlikely the mileage is correct.
Noise from passenger side bank exhaust - it may be just the headshield rattling
Bodywork is reasonably tidy (few rust patches), currently has projector headlights (recommend changing for cheap headlights, and flogging projectors).

All in all, not a bad car at all - the sort I would happily have as a project and tinker with it until everything works.

Oh, and the sunroof doesn't work at all - sounds like its jammed.  The sunroof dial illumination doesn't work any more, coz I just swapped the bulb with the blown one in mine - cheers tunnie!

Ha Ha you crafty so and so - is that your "call out fee"

LOL, I'm cheap

Twas my fee for reprogramming MID telling it it no longer had an auto gearbox to lose the message on the MID.

I was surprised how many systems on board this 1995 car that the Tech2 (1997 onwards) would talk to.  It was only the ATWS (IR type fitted), Sunroof, and Leccy seats (though they may not be getting power) that it would not talk to...

[Markie]

wont a strip and lub fix the `roof?

usually does ....oor is it a new motor job?

Bargin!

1 little L.E.D for about 4 hours labour!  

Thanks for all your work Jamie, can't be bothered with the drivers seat now... i'll sort it tommorow after going to the scrappy (as long as it stays dry!)

[TheBoy]

I reckon it probably would. But it was raining (hence not fixing drivers seat).  My gut feeling is that its the motor/gear mechanism thats seized, rather than the roof, but until removed, can't say.

Personally, I'd have it apart and fix the problem, but I know tunnie is keen to sell on quickly...

There is no rush really due to Tax & MOT... and we will use it to haul rubbish to the Tip!!

Think i might take it apart during the week....
