    Got GT back on road again today

    Fianl sorted my brakes out and got it all running pefect driving round for 2 hours or so...
    comes to a junction and car cuts out and for love nore money i could'nt get it to start the battery was dead flat!
    Tried jumping it wouldn't go.

    So i sent my dad home to fetch straight-bar and £80 escort to toe it home.

    Starts toing it home, gets to top of my street starts to turn, punto slides on some ice and goes straight while im turning so pushes escort round and bar the bends rough across my front end

    So i've had a really bad day, and now i've got to fix something else.

    just thought i'd share my days events.

    for those 2 hours it felt mint though.

    was really odd to be fair, had been driving round all that time and not a problem then got to a junction started to slow down and saw oil presure just drop so i knew it was gonna cut out. then just wouldn't run after that.
