Thanks Andy.
Your MK1 looked tidy last time i saw it at Pats.
First they came for the socialists, and I did not speak out—because I was not a socialist.
Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out—because I was not a Jew.
Then they came for me—and there was no one left to speak for me.

Not to pretty but headcase has cleaned her up and now she idles like a charm.
Onto the next issue.

Video of something altogether not good.

Can we put this one on our youtube channel it should serve as a warning to others.

Drove it from Warwick to Hastings with a little stop at home to take my WIFE for a ride in it.
Over 150 miles.
Anybody think i am over reacting when i say i could have died?
Anyone what to give it a go?

Definitely a warning to all

Doesn't bear thinking about. There must be some higher entity looking out for you.

I felt the same when this happened to my 350z:



Drove 40 odd miles on shattered nearside front - motorway speeds and fast bends.
No detectable wobble/vibrations through the steering, car felt completely normal. Wheel was clearly in 2 pieces but somehow held together the whole time. Still can't believe it to this day.

Nearly died of a heart attack when i realised what had happened!   s:scared: :scared: s:scared:

Sorry for going off on a tangent there... Your near death experience just reminded me of mine!

Just shocking mate. I know the car was low and that area was difficult to see, but I am gutted for you that I didn't spot this.  s:-( :-( s:-(   s:-( :-( s:-(  
Soz mate.  s:-( :-( s:-(

With that level of corrosion, I don't understand how this has passed it's last 2 MOT's. Especially if it was up on a ramp. I don't remember there being an undertray in place when we viewed it.

I feel you were fortunate that nothing happened on the way home, or the drive to Patrick's.

I think the term for that subframe is FUBAR'd..  If you don't know what it means  'F'd Up Beyond All Recognition'.  Probably the most accurate description of what state it's in.   s:D :D s:D  

I'm glad it didn't give way with you & the Mrs in it Scotte....

No worries.
It looked fine from above and its pretty darn low.
I tapped and proded at it perhaps it was on the drive home that it finally gave way.
I did say it was the worst handling 2 i have ever driven.
Think i have been proved right.
No supercharger for Scott this year.
Going to take plenty of overtime to cure all this beasts ills.

I guess that once the rear subby is replaced, it least you know where you are starting from.

I have a rough one in storage which i am taking down for Pat to look at.
It would be a shame to buy a new one just to cut a chunk out of it.
