Hope its just the gasket.

Picked up 5 ppl including my wife from creamfields. They were all asleep on the bank by the hard shoulder on duvets lol.

If it started to rain I was going to set up one of the tents.

Why do these things never happen at the corner of your street.
Hope you get something sorted soon.

Its a petrol VW sharan people carrier, just done 110K +38 miles

My next motor will be a van, was going to get a van around Jan time. Will get the motor into the garage and see what the damage will be. Then time to weigh up the cost of repairs against a van.

I could afford monthly payments on a second hand van. Problem is ive got a bad credit rating from when i was young and stupid that i doubt i would be accepted. I got turned down for a basic business account from alliance & leicster a few months back

Hi mate sorry to here about your car hope you get it sorted soon. it is harder to obtain a business account than h.p on a car if you fall behind on h.p payment they just repossess the vehicle so you should be OK .
