Re: What did you do today?

Probably. Earlier, when the key broke I didn't realise straight away and tried to put it in the lock but it wouldn't go in. The pointy end of the key seems to release a flap but with it snapped off it wouldn't go in at all. When I got the spare key the car started no problem but I suppose I must hav...

Re: What did you do today?

Today I managed to snap the key in half on my Citroen ZX. Not in the barrel though, I have both pieces. Had to drive home in a non taxed or tested car to get the spare key. Then when picking the kids up from school I couldn't even get the key in the barrel. Very odd. The car is still outside school,...

Re: Bargen BMW Z3 brought

I paid £600 for mine, a tatty 2.8i with a blowing exhaust and a short mot. I immediately sold the hard too for £500, did some paintwork on it then fixed the exhaust. You could then hear the engine noise, a low down tap. I stuck it in the auctions and it made £1k so I still made on it but not as much...
