went to give the car a bit of a tick over and put the beast into the garage. hit my remote start button on my key fob and a lil click and nothing! i decide to do it the old fashioned way and get into the car and turn the key :) it clicks and nothing :( so popped down the road to the local auto shop and come back with jump leads thick enough to turn over a monster truck :)
got the beast volvo with it's 2.4 diesel lump as i knew that would jump a MR2 turbo with easy! could probably jump it off the radio of the volvo! but decided to use the special jump point in the engine instead :-P
volvo ticking over with it's 2.4 diesel-ness and one flick of the key in the MR2 turbo and it starts instantly woo! gave it a few revs (to annoy the neighbours) let it run for a while, put it into the garage and once warmed up gave it a couple of revs to about 3k rpm just to hear the turbo dump some air hehe. gonna well miss the car but my own fault for not being mature enough with it in the first place and getting carried away with the power :(
gonna try get my dad on the insurance so he can give it the odd run for me to keep the old girl charged and running hehe.
bored now nothing to bloody do when you can't drive!!!
