There's something wrong with my landy, it hardly has a drip. The clio, well it's closer to a running tap than  a drip  :D :D

Just means it has run out of oil!  :-\

Top it up before you do any long runs.

Mine does not although I stopped outsie a chippy on Leith walk in Edinburgh and when the good lady came out she said there is a big pool of what looks like oil under the vehicle :o :o.

Panic set in immediately, got out checked and sure enough it was oil but then common sense kicked in it was on the passenger side and there is no oil on that side. Panic over whew :)

Now it gets wierd.... After all the fuss about needing a VIC check - but VOSA don't ID check Cat D write-offs so I could'nt have got one - and needing a new MOT to reinsure it, it seems its never been off cover - and we've been paying for it all along through the direct debit.

No argument, NFU have agreed that its a mistake and will refund the difference on sight of the SORN paperwork, vehicle is still insured and I've just taxed it over tinternet, so it all ends well.

Back to where we were in Feb, except with a somewhat smarter looking vehicle !

Phew again.

If its not broken you are not trying hard enough....
