As some of you may know I did an engine change (same engine) after mine gave up the ghost, did that within a week and drove 50 miles on a test run and then at the end of my road of all places it cut out. Couldn't find the fault at all, nor could anyone else who looked at it.
On Saturday I finally gave up on it and put it in a garage and they've just rung up and said they changed the coilpack and it started straight up. So for just £20 it's running.


Annoying, as when it stopped working it changed my whole situation. I've bought 2 new cars now because of it 
Just glad it's working as I thought I was going to end up selling it non running!
Few niggly little bits to sort out now and she's a good'un. Gear Linkage, Rivet window slider in, change bootlid....
Happy Days

It's fine, still got 2 days left and it's already got an amount I'd happily take to get rid of it, as I'll have 3 cars otherwise
