Start off with my bad luck this morning. Damn you Friday 13th.

Broke down outside my works with clouds of smoke. Looks like my radiator has gone. Small hole possibly caused by a stone I hope.

Nothing worse than getting towed home on a Friday.

More money please my sexy wife....lol

Is she an escort of some kind then??

No mate shes my wife that hates coupes because they cost us loads of
money....lol

yep - the wife has demanded i "sell and buy something that won't need so much time and money and effort" putting into it.

This comes after clutch, DV and now alternator needing swapping in the space of a month, and that comes after belts cam and crank sensor which came straight after header pipe...



Strange thing to say as she knows that the next car only has 2 criteria - V8 and 400+ hp.

You thinking of selling the wife then?

Well, I'm not really allowed to post a for sale in this section.....

She's far too high maintenance, more like running a 90's Ferrari. Awkward in traffic, easily overheats, new parts cost a fortune.....

Are you after a new Mrs Stan?

Noooooo! In fact I'd happily give away the one I've got!

One careful owner (the rest of the owners probably thrashed it! )

Saggy upholstery, the leather needs cleaning/treatment on a daily basis.

Body is rough, whether looking from the front, rear or side on!

Suspension has gone south, and everything has followed

Consumption is excessive, way beyond what the book says.

Insurance is a nightmare!

Definitely a non-turbo version, hardly moves at all, never mind fast!

Leaks a bit....

Interested?

sounds just like what I have, except mine also demands money with malice's..

V8 and over 400 hp sounds like an M5 to me. Mine has caused me no distress today as it has not moved. :-)

Lol @ stan. Amazing....lol

Yes drivers side wiper has died! Maybe its because murple over heard me talking to porky about replacing her???

Battery as flat as a pancake. My fault as left the radio on since Sunday and 1st time in it since then.

Did the aux belts and tensioner today, it was a total nightmare. I ended up removing the engine front mount and front gearbox mount to get enough room to remove the aircon belt tensioner. It fought me all the way and took 4 hours to complete. Never again!

good job im getting someone to do mine next week

Why you been doing with her then stevo? Bet she still drove like a beast tho

Just recovering from an operation at the moment so coupe is sat outside having a rest, until it goes to Joes next Friday for oil change and an oil restrictor bolt fitted to my gt28rsr.

There was a Friday the 13th issue here yesterday but I'll let Jake tell the story.

Bonnet got keyed yesterday

Replaced the rad today. Bitch of a job. £145 lost beacause of a stupid stone and wasting my saturday fixing this shit in the bloody rain. Not driving the coupe on any Friday the 13th....lol
