9k something I can only dream of.

http://www.dream-machine.co.uk/ David Essex film was Silver Dream Racer.

Dream Macine....Long Eaton?....think they are still going.

20 year old but looks well (in the photo)..... DVLA says it blue ....pricewise, not a fooking clue.

Been about the same here, drizzle and 4c Iam going to take all the curtains and nets down soon, ready for the window fitters arriving at 8am tomorrow, I had best set my alarm.

Na, too far away, would not trust the Dacia to make it outside of the county.

Hookers & Blow........never tried either, lived a sheltered life.

Hookers & Blow. ........ this is more like it.

Garage just rang, £140 to do the bushes, not the £200 that I was quoted.

As said, I ain't got the facilities or tools, if I had i would have given it a go myself, but not at this time of the year. Brrrrr.

2013 Dacia Sandero 1.2.......... £200 is for parts and labour, they need doing, was a advisory on last August's MOT Can't do them myself, so I will just have to stand to it.

Are anti roll bar bushes made from precious materials?.......£200 to replace them!, booked in for next Tuesday.

We sort of get fresh air through part of the bungalow, patio door seals have been knackered for a couple of years, bathroom & bedroom windows will not close fully because the tilt mechanisms are bent, and the windows mist up inside of the double glazing. The mould guy is coming in early February. PS. On the bathroom door there is a aluminium vent near the bottom, I took it off to paint the door, and guess what?, there is no hole through the door behind it.

Got the bungalow nice and warm (ish) and now the window installation guy is here, he opened all the windows and patio doors now it's like a fridge in here. That's a fiver wasted.

If it was around here, the neighbours would have filled it before you did.

Well done that guy.

I still have mine too,

I have had a look at a few 125cc on some salvage sites, may take the plunge if the scoot sells in the spring.

It's now a throwaway age..........almost.

Garages ain't what they used to be, i am trying to get a little welding done on the Dacia, the 4 garages that I have used in the past all answered the same.." Oh, we don't do welding"....

Pack need a shuffle.

Just looked on AliExpress and there is a CDI for £285.. But the one in photo looks nothing like the CDI that was fitted to my bike, could be a risky buy.

The early model WK650Tr used a CDI manufactured by Ducati Veglia (not Ducati bike manufacturer) and most of post 2016 bikes used a CDI manufactured by Bosch, but the earlier model cannot utilise the later Bosch CDI. The early model CDI seems to be made with unobtainium but with much searching one could be found in Alibaba (think that is what the site is called ) but they are a hefty price, around £450 . Iam on a Chinese bike forum, and a couple of members have purchased (a few years ago I must add) the said CDI from that site, but it took many weeks, in one case a couple of months to arrive. One of the problems with the Ducati Veglia CDI is that it is a poor design (stated by a guy on there who knows his stuff) and a new CDI would most probably (in his opinion) fail after a time, and he tried a couple of companies who specialise in repairing CDI units, and they were unable to effect repairs on the Ducati Veglia CDI. So, £700 for the bike, and £450 for the CDI,and if you paid for other repairs and a MOT it effectively makes the bike not a viable proposition.
