Thought i'd start a log on the dream wagon. We never knew this car existed until we had to trawl classifieds to find a car eligible for our banger rally. But it turns out that we actually quite like this car and can't see it die.
So here is the dream wagon:
...and the initial todo list after the drive home (along with some team suggestions):
Good
- Good handling
- Nice bright full beam
- Good power
- Comfy ride
- Quiet when cruising
- Good heater
- Starts well
- Brakes fast and in a straight line
- Interior and exterior lights all work (apart from dash)
Bad
- Squeaks slightly on turning left
- Pulls to the left slightly (tracking
- Accelerator foot position could do with modifying if possible
- Stereo doesn't work (yet)
- Dashbaord lights do not work (buy a torch)
- When on motorway, wind comes through drivers door seal slightly (Duct tape)
- Windows don't open (motors working, buy string)
- Headlight has duct tape on (Buy more duct tape)
- No warning beep when leaving the light on. (Don't leave lights on)
- Boot seal leaking (Buy more duct tape)
- Needs a standard service and cambelt triple check
I've since managed to fix most of these. The stories are either on my phone or on facebook (https://www.facebook.com/thehucknalls) and I will of course be porting them over to here in the correct order.
