well, it's been a very enjoyable and surprisingly quick NINE years

i was warned by numerous people that my italian romance would end in tears

i kept the faith

but, after forty-six thousand miles and some of the very best of times, it's the end of the road

it started with a routine service...

then that call from the garage that we all dread...

please, no...

i'm sorry to have to break the news...

after all these reliable years and miles...

it's the news we all dread...

but your car needs a new BATTERY !

Yeah we should organise a whip around for you as the OEM battery will probably cost more than the cars worth now with those galactic miles on it biggrin

I think it is normal to change the car battery , how much it cost ?!

Just change it and complete your journey with your lambo.

fear not

a dozen virgins on white stallions have been dispatched by sant'agata to relay forth a beautiful new battery, hand crafted with pride in italy

the cost of such things is immaterial apparently ( especially when the customer's paying )

i won't repeat what was said when i suggested that we just bang in a bosch
