"A moments silence please......................... . The time has come for all that know me TAJ is DEAD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! She did me proud for two years. Went here there and everywhere together. Work Blackpool Selby ETC.. Lent her to a colleague at work who after only ONE WEEK made her boil over. Bought new header tank cap to rectify. Then not evan two days later get a phone call saying that white smoke was pouring out of the back and that she'd ground to a halt. Wasn't a happy chappie to say the least. Turns out pipe had split and no water was left and oil was like water. managed to source replacement pipe as was a dealer only part but dealers no longer stocked this item... Well as RS is a bit poorly needed to sort TAJ out to get to and from work so as MOT had run out on Monday put her through for MOT today and she failed. Going to be too expensive for me personally to rectify the minor problems 2 tyres exhaust and some welding on a sill. Have decided it's time she went (sheds another tear) So as of today/tonight she'll be making her last apperaence on Ebay.... Here are her final pictures... She will be missed.... She will be missed. And moral of the story......Don't let 'colleagues' borrow your car. No matter how desperate they may be.... "
