Yep, day visitors welcome, no charge.

Do remember we may have walked to the pub.

Try a pm to mod Aitch, I'm sure he will help.

Welcome aboard, Judaz.

Worth trying a search, I'm sure someone recommended a garage your way a while back.

Thanks for posting, great pics.

Thanks,Jilly.

Personaly I don't let the gauge go under 1/4. Twice in the last month we've been scrambled to family members in, or needing to get to hospital. Not the time to be thinking which garage is open.

Also gives you some slack if the queues are bad, no power, banking system down...

Thanks Chris, pleased to say we're in.

The panda is booked.

High on reserve list, Bongomeister says 99% sure we'll get in.

Just need a green light from Mrs B, but I'll be suprised if we're not there.

Last year was fantastic.

Mulling this over I've an idea that the myth that you can't tow a 4wd has grown from the fact that you can't use a spec lift or suspended tow without disconecting the prop shaft(s).

The wheels on the ground would turn the suspended pair.

I always zero the trip counter when I fill up as a back up to the gauge. As said, 500kms/300 miles gives a good reserve. I've never been one for chancing it with fuel. I write this waiting at the hospital having had to deliver a family member, not the time to work out where the nearest (open) garage...

My understanding is as above, no more than 18mph, 4wd shouldn't be a problem as the transmission is ok.

I'd tow it with a rigid bar to overcome the brake servo issue - these can be had for 20 quid upwards, just remember Bongy will run about 2 tons.

Bloomin' bad luck, Mate.

Hopefuly warranty will cover further repairs if you've just paid the garage to fix it, but are you using a 'Bongo Savvy' garage?

Unfortunately not all garages know as much as they think they do, and some won't be told about bleeding the system.
