The sun is shining, it's a beautiful day. What better than a blast in the wedge. Oh I can't. It's in Tvrbodyshop being repaired after that ******** rear ended me on the way back from GOTG.
Not to worry, still got the Taimar, the one I bought on Ebay without even seeing it. I'll take that for a blast. Out of town I go & over the mountain. 10 miles on, and after seeing nothing but sheep, the tacho starts playing up. Then the misfire. Oh **** i thinks. It's 9pm getting dark. I'm on top of a mountain, with shorts + t shirt. no money, cards, no phone, left the breakdown recovery details at home. Managed to nurse it to the other side of the mountain then it gave up completely.
What the heck do I do now?
Came upon this retired couple in a camper who were settling down for the night. Borrowed his phone & phoned the g/friend (who lives 40 miles away from where I was).1 hr later she arrived with her son & a transit, with a rigid tow bar.there is no where you can fit a tow bar on a Taimar.So Iv'e left it, come home and popped a cork.

Please TVR bodyshop. give me back my wedge. I have done 8000 miles in it in the last 15 mths & it has never missed a beat.

My Audi is playing up as well,less than 2 yrs old, broken down 4 times, and now the computer keeps shouting warnings at me.

Please please give me back my wedge , it's the only faithful friend I have.

Got the Taimar home. It was the ballast resistor. Just by passed it, which got me home.

Not sure when will get the wedge back though
