What did you do to your MK1 today?
Battery was dead of course because he's not been driven for ten days and in these cold temperatures well what do you expect from a three year old battery.

Past with flying colours for the 5th year in a row.

Did have five advisors but there're the same five for the past five years because my workshop has to write something down or it looks a little suspicious if they were ever checked. Not even sure MOT testers back home would even notice or comment on them, like there's light rusting (rust spots) on the lower half front suspension spring D/S etc…
So this weekend he's off to the garage for a few months of hibernation and in spring he'll get a new battery and a couple of special treats no doubt!

Because as many of you who know me 2017 will most likely be the last year I own him so a very special polishing etc…

Today I plan on driving topless, as it is to be 70f here.
Yes the top is up to allow the canvas to dry. Drove it down the road at 70mph, and the top was dry by the time I got home.

What do Divorces, Great Coffee, and Car Electrics all have in common?
They all start with GOOD Grounds.
Where are my DIY Links?
