Driving down the M8 past Eurocentral to Shawhead at 10 this morning.

Truck going the other way had a white Countash on the back. Didn't see the plate so have no idea if it's yours or not.

Anyone else see it?

Hi all

yes was mine. I was at the Silverstone classic this weekend and car had a very unusual problem and wouldnt start. Couldn't figure the problem so got it recovered up here to Carlo at Top Gear Cars. Saw it tonight. Sob......

Really not sure what the problem is. Could be a cracked Rotor arm or possibly the coil. Will find out in a few days.

It is the first time it has broken down in 6 years due to a fault.

Craigie, where did you get that pic of the Ice Cream Van? If it is one of our old vans no one should be using our old business name. Is it a current pic? It isn't the colours we used in our vans. Please let me know as may need to go speak to owner.

Twisted bracket, very noticeable when it happened but no idea WHY it happened, which is a bit concerning. £650. Carlo took if out for a run and an oil pipe failed. Would've been another £1200 or so but he found an aftermarket alternative which has been used by other people without a problem. £300. All in, around a grand.

Not too bad, with some of the posts on the US sites quoting 20 grand repairs i'm glad it wasnt that smile
