Glad you all seemed to have a good day yesterday!

My car is currently off the road and probably will be untill the middle of July, going to try and get it into Scooby clinic before i go on holiday and then leave it there for two weeks while i am away to try and sort it all out for me and get a few bits and pieces done. Running really rich and was told not to drive it as serious damage will result from prolonged mileage.

Lee, not really in a position to buy another car at the minute and now determined to make it my mission to make this car run! Must admit that my introduction to Subaru ownership has not been a happy one so far and am regretting my purchase more and more, but i am hoping it all turns out ok.

acko- I bought it from an Import company in Huddersfield. Dont think this problem goes back to them though just a simple wear and tear matter i think / hope. Not even sure what the cause is, not slating subaru's at all, at least while its off the road its not costing me anything! Yeh will be able to have a good holiday, i actually feel ready for one this year after 10 months of working 6 nights a week!!
