On an actual computer now so..



Parked up in the Brecons for a spot of lunch. Drove round the corner and found a much more attractive spot, but never mind! ;D (Mine is the blue one, sadly, not the white one in the middle!)

We had the same thought as we were .. driving sensibly at well below the speed limit .. through the Welsh countryside - cars are a bit old for being on TG, though, I think ;D

gave the electric hybrid a good wash and clean today after yesterdays same day run to and back from Plymouth - circa 630 miles roundtrip from N Lincs. This was the first out of town run in this vehicle since I got it last month - long day though left N Lincs 6am, got back from Plymouth 8.30pm

Just about to take the Zafira for an aircon regas....

Question is, Is there an issue, or is it going to just be a regas....

fingers crossed, but suspect something will need doing.

Is that from your intimate knowledge of it or an educated guess?

Intimate knowledge and the usual failure.

It was looking a little tired (bottom hanging off as usual), easy to change though, can be done with just the front grill removed and dead easy with the bumper off.

About an hour to change including bumper removal and lunch on the Mumsy bus...

Far less annoying than trying to extract the radiator etc on the Omega ::)

Delphi make the originals, I still use cool car aircon for parts as the item quality is always good.

There are two versions, a square one and a rectangular one, so have a look to see which you need
