Whats in your boot
« on: 09 May 2007, 11:26:48 »
Just opened my boot to get my locking wheel nut kit.....

and i currently have:

A garden table
A mini fridge  :o
A huge union jack brolley
A 1/12 scale half built boxed tamiya Impreza petrol driven remote control car.
and a thermostat from a rover......

No tools though - is that shoddy or complete faith in my omega  ;D

Tools... lots of tools, and various sprays.

Oh and a reconditioned Garrett turbo for the Peugeot/Citroen 1.9TD engines that I really need to sell as I don't need it!  :-[

 - A gallon drum of screenwash because my screenwash reservoir has a leak and I have to top it up every few hours on long journeys.
 - A large bottle of oil because my cars eats it like it is petrol.
 - A large bottle of water, for two reasons.  One, to dilute concentrated screenwash if needed. Two, just in case it overheats.  I have had the car 6 months and it hasn't yet, but with everything else on it going wrong, i expect it will do soon.
 - The lock assembly for the boot, because it keeps falling out.
 - Bits of the rear wiper, which gave up a while back and I cannot seem to get around to fixing.
 - Part of the passenger door lining which fell off.

And, because my current car is a Punto, the boot is just about full.

I wish it would do the decent thing and stop working altogether.......

......damned thing even passed its MOT a few weeks ago. That was going to be my exucse for buying an Omega.  Now I need another one.

Well if you drive a Fiat, you expect these challenges.... ;D

Oh and stop replacing the oil. That will get it to stop working soon enough! ;)
