FFS Bub, can you stop breaking stuff?bub2006 wrote: ↑Thu May 16, 2019 8:15 am Not so much today but actually yesterday,I'm just a bit tardy. The BMW hunting issue was getting worse. To the point it wouldn't pull cleanly up Cornish hills. Clutch was dire too. Clutch started to slip really bad pulling up the A30 sliproad from Hayle. Priced up a new clutch,£250 fitted and car be off road for a few days. Then the costs of whatever the issue was with the running. Money I can ill afford especially when on holiday and over 300 mile from home. So I did the sensible thing. It went to be scrapped. I didn't want to but it owed me nothing,was a cat N write off and needed a new rear box,front tyres getting low and wing had sharpedges. With mot due in 3 weeks and no payout from insurance for the foreseeable I did what I had to. Cut my losses and say goodbye. I now own a Citroen xantia td with MOT till September, towbar and a knackered fuel gauge. I'm seriously considering going back to motability.

Re: What did you do today?
I'm sorry to appear thick but I don't understand the Mobility scheme.
I guess that to put it bluntly can you get a new car on it and, if so, why don't you?
I sort of got the impression that you couldn't raise the deposit but could be entirely wrong.
If that's the case pressurising the insurance company for the payout, threatening then with the Ombudsman etc., might bear dividends, especially if you say its preventing you from getting a mobility car.

Re: What did you do today?
I've got some ZX seats that would almost certainly fit. You may have to change runners but they should be interchangeable. You can have them.
Dibs on the Xantia please, I didn't know it was yours now! I've missed it a couple of times. Even if you kill it I'll still probably be interested!
