    So I bought a scrapper Suzuki Cappuccino to get the engine to replace
    the blown one in other half's car last week. The original plan was to
    bring the car down to London from Blackpool, take the engine and the
    best bits from the scrapper and then part it out. But getting a non-
    running car from oop North to London turned out to be a bit pricier
    than expected - one quote of 500+VAT and even borrowing a trailer and
    hitching it to brother's Discovery would have been a hundred+ for fuel
    alone.

    But the interweb does have its advantages and so the car's been resold
    for £100 to a bloke in N Wales who's a mate of a bloke I know from the
    owers club, who has plans to stick some other engine in it. As part
    of the deal he collects it and takes the engine out and then his son
    who lives in Kent is going to bring the motor down in a couple of
    weeks when he goes up to see his dad.

    A result.
