Woke up this morning and headed off to work as usual. Turned out of my road on to the main and very busy road and my car just died.

Totally cut out and would not restart. It was turning over but not firing. Then of course the traffic lights changed and I was holding traffic up.

After most of the cars had tried to get round me fortunately two builders decided to jump out their van and help me push it round the corner (CHEERS LADS).

Called the RAC who arrived pretty quickly (30 minutes-ish). he had a quick check and suspected fuel pump or fuel pump relay but said as the junction was so busy didn't want to start attempting repair. Anyway he suggested towing it to my work as I work in a Garage (but I'm not a mechanic!!!) so we opened my tool kit to retreive my towing eye!!!! And I have't got one...

He then suggested he called a special tow truck as my car was too low and get it recover to my work.
After another 30 minute wait (which was pretty impressive) the tow truck arrived and lowered the flat bed. He still needed the towing eye to hook on to the winch but was just able to attatch it to some part of my suspension without it ripping my front spoiler off.
Eventually arrived at work at about 10.30 ish instead of my usual 8.00am start and got one of the mechanics to look at it and apparently its the fuel pump. So Mr RAC man was right. Got straight on to German & Swedish and I've got one coming out tomorrow.
Next up is to get a towing eye!!!
