Your fleet running reports

The other day i came out of the house at 9:30 on a sunday morning to find my wife’s car (parked on the road because we had my old man over the day before) all unlocked with the boot wide open.



Presumably it had been like that all night (and it’s a fairly busy road)! I can only assume she came in and leant in the keyfob or something, it’s not the first time it’s been left that way (usually reversed on the driveway though!)

He doesn't live near the sea. You see ? You C.

You're suggesting he's a country member?

Yes.... I remember.

We've had this before with the wife's Superb.

Saw the X5 do this, it was moisture ingress in the boot release switch. Also surely a security flaw that a switch can somehow open a locked boot.

I once leant on my key and opened all the windows about 3 inches and it hammered down overnight. Car was getting traded in the next day……

I now disable global open wherever possible

The Jimny failed its MOT today. Mechanically all good but the tester asked me if it had spent a lot of time in Scotland. The underside is a bit crusty and there is an actual hole in the boot floor. Looking at the underside myself it doesn’t look like it’s been parked in the sea or anything, so I am probably going to get a quote for refurbing it - I was planning to sell but confronted with the news that it may not be economically viable to save it, I felt really sad. Realistically if someone offered me a grand for it as it is, I’d take that - it removes the hassle of getting it fixed and it would be worth way more than that in parts.

Any midlanders know a decent welder who charges very little per hour? Flewy would have been my first port of call but I think he is in India most of the time now.

(Based on his insta posts) He’s back as of the end of last week.

Put it on eBay, £1 auction with the reserve at £1000. All the others on there going for more look absolutely terrible so it may do well.

[Jobbo]

EBay might be a good idea. I’ll drop Flewy a line too, though I don’t know if he kept his unit, tools etc.

My experience of Suzuki 4x4s seems to be that I like them but they enjoy dying in my ownership
