After 2 and a half years the Ibiza has let me down for the second time. :eek:
Looks like the coil has quit on me. Waiting on the RAA for a tow.
Expressions of sympathy gratefully received as my tea has gone cold!:P

You don't carry a spare coil in the toolbox? Obviously you've never owned a Mk1 Golf. :biggrin:
At least a dead coil is real easy to troubleshoot and replace.

Had loads of MK1s, never had a bung coil on one. :cool:
Got a ride home with the RAA man and stole the coil off the Toledo.
Started straight away. RAA man said it was a pleasure watching me work!!:P:P
Warming up my tea in the microwave now.

I'm still stoked on the time I blew the oil breather off beating an XR6T & you diagnosed the problem over the phone :cool: *
* More to do with my crap memory than Gavin's psychic mechanical ability :(

I've not had a prob with my Mk1. (Touch laminated wood veener) :banana:
Breaking down twice isn't too bad. i remember my brother's first car (Hillman Hunter) broke down on each of the first 3 days he had it, and then many times thereafter :emo_baghead:
