Oh bloody hell!

Why do you always think the worst.

Probably just air in system (like already stated) or you might need annew clutch slave cylinder or master cylinder. Both can be repaired using new seals for a couple of quid.

If it is needing a new clutch then it's just the cost of a clutch kit and an afternoon fitting it (no need to remove engine).

The only real issue is if the oil seal is leaking heavily all over the clutch place.

Apart from that it's no big issue and certainly nothing (apart from the oil seal) that would cause you to have to remove the engine.

I'm seeing Dan tomorrow I could pop round after and take a look.

Well after seeing chunky it turns out it IS the clutch slipping. So need to repair that before Mitp plus shes also showing signs of piston rings / valve somethings going? So short of it is. Micra powaahh!!

just need to work out which car to buy, strip it and sell off the rest of it :) then we can look at the subframe :)

 

Oh, bodywork will be started soon too :)

Well, Nelly is off road now, Let the restoration commence! :) Expect more pictures and stuff... I have a few friends willing to help with the welding etc but am going to try and do as much of it on my own. Just not very good with a grinder, jumps out my hands!

You missed out the part where i fixed your exhaust outside my house, supplied you with a new 12in front wheel and fitting your lower arm bushes! haha

 

More pictures need to be taken of all these things that are done haha.

 

Also, get a picture of your donor car up!

Ok, cool. We can use your car as the subject for your lessons on how to use your camera.
