Drove to Liverpool from Stone and back in the Shed - held a good 100+Kph on the M53 - went to a customer in Bootle and nearly all the staff from the factory turned out to look at it!
Pissed oil out from somewhere though......

Discovered my steering rack is buggered :( :( :( :cry:

Very short of money, so any quick fixes and tips would be appreciated.

Hi Chris

There would appear to be movement where the track rods attach to the steering rack.

I think there may be play elsewhere, however I have not had the car jacked up (as I need to get some jack oil) to fully investigate.

Has been a lovely day in Shetland today, I've been rattling along in the 2CV with the hood fully open and the locals seem to like seeing it as it pootles along. :D

I know you say you are short of money but the parts are special and no easy DIY fix -
