Seen a DB5 at the local petrol station :D I waited for the owner to start it up XD Such a disappointment as it struggled to idle and he attempted to speed away. Only for it to splutter and clonk into gear down the road :/ Also had a nice patch of filler on the rear wing that had been rattle canned!

It's a quite a good job working in a garage where they also sell petrol, get to see all sorts of cars. There's one customer who has two vintage bugatti's... they are absolutely gorgous cars

Well first breakdown in the mini :/ Managed to get home though after two bump starts and only my headlights working. On the upside my interior light started to work for the first time since owning it -.-

You mean it passed then? Anything under £300 counts as a pass in my book!!
