May 2007 on my way to meet Tarquin the fuel pipe off the sender unit split. AA were called and the very nice man (who could've been uncle ken's identical twin brother!) dropped the tank at 7.30am, just off the M5 and just a few hundred yards from the local VOSA station! 30 minutes later i was on my way!

September 2007 on the way back from the Dyane 40th anniversary meeting, my lights started to dim, pulled over to find the alternator belt in a mess. Dug one out of the bottom of my tool box only to find it was waaaaayyy too big! no idea what it was off - certainly not a 2cv! called the AA & they didn't have anything suitable either, so i ended up getting recovered...

Oh, I have a couple of these....after a while you start to think...."Another road....another AA Man, another trailer." The flashing lights lose their novelty.

Da da da da da da daaaaaaaaaa drum rolllllllllll!

carb issue..... no... wait... it turned out to be a bloody coil connection....

although the coil was hot so it may well have overheated causing the sudden dramatic loss of power, swerving over 3 lanes and into the hardshoulder of the wrong sliproad and various attempts to start causing the wire to just fall off un noticed by me as i was staring at the carb to see if it was leaking petrol everywhere (perol is 2p cheaper in birmingham btw) GOOD TIMES!....
