Here we go again,, any one who knows me will remember me spend a small fortune on upgrading my braking system (1250.00) At a well know place that im not allowed to name..
Taking car to work this morning , Yes i know it was pooring down, But we where quiet at work so thought get some one to pull off down pipes & remove the pre catts,
Anyway only made it half way & no brakes at all. No brake fluid at all in resevoir at all.. Glad it happened in traffic and not last sunday on the hoom..2 hrs waiting for recovery track..
Any way after all the trouble i've had with the brakes, I've got a independent engineering comming out early next week for a full report before i start down the court route..

Chuffing southerners, thats your problem Yellowgriff.

You need to get ooop north where we know how to work on cars, not poncy playboy yachts. They probably thought "its fibreglass therefore its a boat and doesn't need brakes"

biggrin
But down south we dont have to save up for petrol..........

I thought you owned the recovery truck, perhaps you need to remind them who pays their wagesbiggrin

These brakes have been a nightmare, but it'll serve you right for slowing down!

See you soon
