It was leaking. I used it to get to burton to look at another picasso with blown gearbox, planning to buy for spares. Came off a38 at services and found I had no brakes at 55mph.

I looked at my car as I passed by while walking the dog.

I did 'think' about driving it... but changed what little of my mind there is.

I have done some car juggling, the Mx5 was at the back and I haven't driven if for weeks so I used it to do a site visit. It's now in the front but I need to do my weekly shopping later, I'm sure it will all fit in.
