Got him out today ! Bless it :)

Last time I used I whacked he exhaust, which has dislodged the down pipe gasket.

So lambda is going mad ! Using lots of fuel and running like shit, one tyres gone flat, and dipped beam doesn't work, brake pipes been ripped off !!

Loaded it up and took it to my dads, fix some shit tomorrow hopefully ;)
