Ital back on the road yipeee!!!!!

Post by James Riley » Fri Feb 22, 2008 9:32 pm

Hi Guys,

My ital has finally been recomissioned, new clutch and slave cylinder, all perfect, finally no judder! brand new MOT all ready to go.

I'm over the moon as I havent been able to drive her since September!

She's perfect, after all that sitting around, she still only needed the horn fixing and the hand brake cable lubricating!!!!

had the new clutch, clutch slave cylinder and bits above all done for £210 (including the MOT which is £50 alone) I supplied the parts which cost me about £40 in total.

I think thats really quite good and im glad I have found a nice little garage that can do these things and it's a 4 minute walk away!

Anyway, finally back on the road and looking forward to meeting up with others as soon as.

:D

Agree - certainly doesnt feel like spring in yorkshire - it's been freezing! even my diesel rover 45 struggled to start the other day it was so cold and it heats the fuel beforehand!

Mind you, my dafodils thought it was spring, but now seem to have that look of complete shock like when you thrown yourself into an icy pool!
