    I Aint Dead

    In the words of Granny Weatherwax.

    Im still about but the last few months have been nuts. After resussing the S2 it then failed its MOT so its been off road waiting for some TLC. Have decided to go round her in the summer and start some serious restoration efforts starting with the bushes, tires, wheels brakes and exhaust. The centre section has since fallen off while she's been stood

    The Suzuki has eaten a propshaft, diff, alternator and is now halfway through destroying a gearbox, sadly I'm not alowed to do what I really want to do, and torch it.

    The 100, although having been a brilliant car, is in the for sale section and I now own a white Transit instead. Fuel prices finally put the nail in that coffin and I'm afraid they are rulling out all of the engine/performance plans for the S2, I just cant afford her to be any worse on fuel than she is. Short runs and pottering about the 100 was struggling to give 16mpg and I really cant afford that. The Transit is returning 30mpg.

    Oh and Husky no 3 is due to arrive in a week and I now share ownership of a pub as well as my own PC shop.

    Sorry for not replying to PMs as I simply havent had the time or energy to look.

    Hopefully there will be some 20V Turbocharged goodness again in a few days as the battery is on charge now.
