Just seeing your post Bonzo, just had to post about my day.
I also just picked up a second donor. 2Ltre Pinto Sierra.
paid a bit over the odds for it but nice car with 9 months
MOT and a couple of months Tax.
Decided to stop at Tescos on the way home for some food shopping.
When I got back to the car with a full trolly of shopping
(Yes I had the wife with me) found I couldn't unlock the car.
pissing hard with rain.......getting severe ear ache...
Decided to phone the sell up asking if there was a knack to unlocking it.
Which key did you use, he asked..
The one in the ignition I told him, the only one on the key ring....
Oh he said, that will lock it but you need the other key to unlock it.
Where's that I asked.
In the glove box he said.....
I won't post what I thought, but it rhymes with James Hunt .
1hr later the nice man from the RAC arrives,
Does his twiddly bit with a coat hanger and I'm on my way again.
I was soooooo tempted to take a brick to the side screen.
If it wasn't raining I think I would have.
