Why you little..........:mad:

So i had a really poor day at work, which meant I left later.
I got into my car, looking forward to blowing away some cobwebs with a spirited drive home through the traffic.
Unlock, get comfy, key in, turn, dashlights up, and pfffttt...
Nothing.
Not a sausage.
Hmm? again.................
Pfftt.
Not even a weak click.
Quick call to garage confirms my own feelings - starter motor.
I accost some bloke from (I assume, given his dress and familiairty with mechnanics) Aero-Mech.
WE tried pushing. No joy.
So i ended up being toweed around the car park in the pitch black by a ...............
Poxy Nissan Almera, 1999 reg.......
Oh the shame.
Still, got it started. Dumped it at the garage around 5:45pm this evening.
If this is how the little tramp repays me for putting her up for sale (door cable, drivers mirror and now this) since Friday, GOOD RIDDANCE TO HER!!

Main dealer attention whenever she needed it
Wax wizard products massaged into every curve and cranny by my loving mitts...........I tell you, there are things I've done for that car that I wouldn't do for another living soul. No, really......

Still, why?
Reason Here
Wasn't expecting her to take it quite so personally though.........fleecing the old goat for every last penny while she still can.........

And bengie, bad lucks got nothing to do with it - I've got (possibly) one of the older (if not oldest) Octavia on the boards...........2000 W reg........
