  1. mrk 4 allwhite shame as this one was rotten and had to be broken up i forgot how many i have had lol
  2. well fellow cabby owners got a prob with the all blue picked the car up and it fired up no problem stopped at the garage on the way home and it would not start again so i got a jump start and away she went time to go to ford fair on sunday and at 5.00 in the morning it would not start so alice kindly push started me lol and again off it went .thought with a good drive and 3 hours charging no probs but no went to leave ford fair and nothing so the lads gave me a push start ( and after giving a 3 door cossie a push start eariler in the day thought it was pretty funny ) got home on sunday and unpacked the car and again nothing on the key so thought ok battery is fooked went away to work for a week and left another battery on charge while i was away .came home swapped the battery over and still nothing on the key so thought rite full battery must be the starter motor ..changed that over today and nothing waited till alice came home put the jump leads on and still nothing on the key but tied a rope to it and started within 50 yards outside the house now and still nothing on the keys again all ideas welcome thanks in advance ollie
