It seems that I'm not the only one finding it hard to get up and moving now that the Australian winter is upon us. It would seem that having been treated to lots of nice things lately that Beryl still isn't happy.
I think that the starter motor is on the way out much in the same way that Stan's was, which we eventually replaced thanks to you JP! While I wait for him to travel out from the UK I'll be carrying the essential VW vintage starter motor encouragement tools just in case. This technological tool kit consists of a blanket to lay on the ground and a hammer!!!!
I'm actually thinking of selling out of the VW scene, growing up a little and getting a proper car like everyone else. At the moment there is nothing worse than a walk to the garage with the nagging doubt that it ain't gonna start again. This coupled with the fact that there isn't any social scene attached to having a VW like their is in the UK, which is what its mostly about for us.
At the moment she has 12months rego after the inspection and 12months insurance attached to her that will transfer to the new owners, which makes her a more attractive proposition for buyers... watch this space!
