Skoda Rally Blog

Today I am not a happy bunny. Anyone who’s unfortunate enough to know me personally would probably say I’m a bit of a miserable git. However, today I have a good reason, as my ‘lovely’ Focus engine has expired. So I had to drive the Skoda to work today. At a school. Which meant lots of schoolboys pointing at the car and stuff, which was amusing, but I could see that some of them thought it wasn’t the real thing! Ha ha ha, how amusing. Anyway, I’ll not have to do that again, as I’ve bought something to use temporarily (A volvo 440 of all things). But it means limited funds, so maybe the fuel injection will have to go on hold for a while. I’ve not even ordered the new strut-tops yet, which I really do need! And a new oil filler cap, which got lost the rally before last and has been using a flexi-cap which isn’t much good. But there’s little else to report apart from small boys staring open-jawed and pointing at the cars and getting their mates to look….

Ho ho ho.
