Am selling the cruiser per my other posts.
But last night and today it was as always cruiser to the rescue.
My daily driver is a high miles golf tdi which has been very reliable since i have owned it. Until last night when the fuel pump decided enough was enough. Nothing to hint a problem other than 2 warning coughs then the car switched off and that was that. thankfully it was in a car park when it died.
So the trust cruiser which had done about 12 miles in the last 3 or 4 months fired up first turn of the key. happily towed the golf back to my mates yard awaiting new parts. and now the trusty old cruiser is doing several hundred miles running around today.
as ever never misses a beat, ever. Doesn't handle like the Golf, is not as quiet or as quick or as fuel miserly BUT it always, always runs. Vorsprung durch technique rescued by 21 year old technology. Gotta love the lack of electrickery bits to fail on the cruisers.
