Should have kept the bongo

[Chris&Gem]

Most of you know that we sold the bongo , and bought a kia sportage as a tow car for are caravan. The bongo never had any major probs in 4 years, took the kia in today to have it looked at. As thought the clutch is on it's way out, could nearly buy a bongo for the price they quoted, seven hundread and ninety nine pounds for a new clutch. We will see how much my mate will do it for at the weekend. Hope he's cheaper

[M 80NGO]

Yep you should have

[mikeonb4c]

I remind myself of the Bongos low purchase price and running costs every time I start to fret about MPG issues

Maybe Ian should set up a Counselling section on here for people who regret selling their Bongo!!!!

Yep!!

And here it is ........

If you're missing a bit of bongo polishing & pimping Chris, mine's looking distinctly grubby, I'll provide the coffees - or maybe a Crabbies or 2?

Don't beat yourself up - just replace it

So sorry to hear that you have to fork out that much just before Christmas Chris, but it makes me more dtermined to keep mine and pay Allan to service it. Had new cambelt fitted yesteday. What a difference, the old one was stretched that much the timing was out.
I hope you can still make NewYear.

Don't beat yourself up - just replace it

When i sold my first one & bought a car ~~~~i was beating myself up everyday for 3 months & when i sold the car to buy another Bongo i was considering cutting my throat with all the money i lost on the car~so for me a good lesson learnt but the throat is now healing nicely

[Chris&Gem]

At the end of the day the bongo's gone, but all my mates are still here (how soft do i sound)

[mister munkey]

Not really.

Bongos come & go.

Chums are more of a long term thing.

I quite like to think that in 35 years time there will still be a little gang of likeminded peeps chirping away on here, even if the only thing they have in common is a photo of an ancient Bongo.

This place is like the Hotel Calafornia for some.

never thought i,d find myself agreeing with a weird blue monkey - but i do - thats what being on here does to people.
