I spotted a cheap ka2 for sale cheap near me so went and haggled and got it for £120.Bargain i thought so got in my bmw to go home and no problems.Stopped at garage to get her a bottle of lambrini(classy i know lol) and battery as dead as a doornail.Had to walk home and get the wifes polo to jump it.

I think it thinks the ka will replace it lol,better be an easy fix as im getting fed up of expensive ones!!!!

I tried to post it, didn't work as I used the wrong link, couldn't be bothered to re-write it out so deleted it and replaced it with "righto"

I should be down the pub, this internet malarkey is too much work sometimes :(
