yeah she looks really well at the min as the last time she was out was Mini Vs Beetle on the easter weekend and she was washed and polished. Then she broke down on the way home and went into the garage and i've not had the time to get her fixed  |

Well after taking the Dizzy apart and finding out that i need to replace the Point and Condenser it turns out that the problem with the beetle is the soft squishy pink thing that replaced the HT Leads. So what can i say schoolboy error |

It's not the critic who counts,The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena who strives valiantly, who at best, knows in the end the triumph of high achievement; and who at the worst if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who know neither victory or defeat

I had a big motor in my last bug, this one is more of a cruiser so the 1200 will do for now.
But then again the sounds of twin 40's is very tempting
