I can't see anywhere where a sd card would live. There is a drawer on the side of the laptop for a disc but that is empty. Down at the bottom right of the screen are several icons one of which is a white square and if I put the arrow on that it shows vida eupdate. I've not clicked on it but would doing so acheive anything? The laptop itself is a Lenovo 80MJ and is solely used for vida.

Its done 121000 miles.
I also suspect it hasnt been done before, so Im glad I changed it. Apparently it can cause serious problems on these if ignored.
It seemed quieter and smoother when I drove it afterwards, but that could well be wishful thinking on my part.

Is it still running on the original PP9?

Positive placebo is a wonderful thing.

Yes still on the original PP9. 73% battery health. If sticking to the battery healthy charging range of 20% - 80% the useable range isnt much more than 50 miles.
My commute is 17 miles each way so it suits my needs.
It might get a bit tight in Winter when the heater is used, as apparently that runs off the big battery rather than the 12v that all other ancillaries run off.
If needs be, I can top it up a bit at home using the granny charger.
Will post up a couple of pics when I can be arsed.

And it was phlegm green, thank you.

Not really sure I understand the purpose of this topic but let's try.

Today I bought a white 91' Vectra GT 20SEH, basically an SRI Cavalier for my fellow british guys

I removed rear bumper and the shell is as crusty as a bag of Tyrrells chips The poor car spent its life by the sea in Corsica, and every bit of steel uncovered by paint is literally orange. The rust also comes out from under the paint by very small circles of 1 or 2mm, like bubbles. I'm still not sure I'll keep the shell, because the engine is so great on the other hand


I was in search of this particular car because it's the car from my childhood and it's been years I was looking for one, but so rare in France.
Funny thing, it was red, the same as Lewis father

Nice project!    Hope you can kick it into shape.
