I would have been there but I went to Homebase for a couple of things early, and heard a bit of a rattling sound from the passenger side. When I got
home I looked underneath and found one of the trailing arms had broken!
Sorry to miss you - maybe next time

Didn't need any more breakdowns Simon - a pleasant morning was marred somewhat with problems with both Dan's (dead starter) and
John's cars (dead battery).
Got Dan on his way with a push start, but John's battery was so defunct that the car would only run with the jump leads attached. Left him
waiting for the RAC man to arrive, hope they both make it back ok. John's homeward journey looked like being on the back of the recovery truck
though, unless RAC man had a m/cycle battery on board......

Well what a day this have been!
I was very lucky the RAC man (Andy) had built a Sylva Riot
We quickly confirmed the battery was no more! so he suggested trying the local halfords in guildford, they didn't have the right one so called
the one in woking who had the very same bike battery yay
so fitted it and was all sorted only just got back home now thou!
still was good to catch up with you guys

Didn't think you stood a chance of finding a battery today - well done to your man Andy, sounds like you got the right guy for your car....
Ah well, brake, throttle, I'm always mixing those two up.....
