Mrs Mull is still driving an absolute shed of a 15 year old Punto.
Her cars are rather like a huge handbag. Full of crap.
Before I decided I'd had enough of arsing about under cars, I changed the power steering. Also fixed a cylinder head leak. I'll change the oil if I'm in the mood, but that's it now.
She just spent £120 on an auto electrician to sort out numerous niggles with lights and power windows.
Car is probably worth about £150.. but to replace it would cost a lot more so this is cheap motoring. She rarely ventures more than 30-40 miles from home so if the thing dies it's no biggie.
I have however just reminded her again that the cam belt hasn't been changed ever.. AFAIK. I could do it.. but I won't. I can't be arsed.
So we shall see.
