Decided to take the dog to Ferry Meadows (big local park) and see if any saxo's there:y: got onto the entrance road to the park and the bottom hose blew:panic: couldn't stop as very narrow road and loads of traffic behind me:oops: got to the car park and all hell let loose, temp gauge in red no oil pressure, and water/steam out of the exhaust then engine wouldn't turn over, phoned AA they got there in 20 mins:y:
Felt a right c*nt with the bonnet up and smoke and steam billowing out and all the other drivers going past laughing at my pride and joy:oops:
Got home ok with AA help, just need a new hose and a head gasket, so no more days out for a while:n:

Yep it was the Furio, 1st fault in a year:oops: did have a meet arranged at the park but it got called off for "mothers day" I just went in case anyone turned up, should have stayed at home, (Sods law)

Sounds like a crappy trip mate, sorry the meet didn't go ahead as planned. Suprised you didn't see some of the other guys as i think they were still planning on going down there.

Fair enough the c2vts is a fast car, but what a sh*t ride, with me speed is not everything, I just love the feel of the saxo, you kind of sit in the car, with the c2 you sit on it, except for that bloody gearbox on the saxo:fcuk:
And before anyone says I'm a moaning :fcuk:er (all together now) both cars have good points:y:

Thats true:wall: but the saxo has never let me done before:hug: lucky I signed up with the AA last week:cool:
Don't laugh, I was bidding for a Volvo 480s on ebay, with the popup headlights, just to :fcuk: about with. but common sense took over and I bought some bodykit parts for the saxo instead:y:
