    But having the windows up causes glare on teh outside so no-one can look in and see your car mats....:confused:

    PS are you sure it's your air con leaking? Not an embarassing little problem you'd like to share with us? :confused:

    Glad to see you're still doing well SS, nearly sub 28k is fantastic :T :j

    I sympathise about the air con, I'd use it if I had it :o I did a 6 hour journey on tuesday and it was miserably hot, even with fan on, windows and sunroof open :rolleyes: !

    Admiring your moneysaving idea to avoid service stations, they're so expensive I actually said "how much!!" when I saw the price of a bottle of water.... bit too loud though :o :rotfl:

    Needless to say I made do with the near boiling water that was sat in my car!

    Hope you're having a good day :)

    Well my loan payment cleared today so I'm sub £28,000! :)

    And even better news is that 3 bills arrived today! :rolleyes:

    Natwest have got until next Monday to enter a defence about my bank charges so hopefully in the next couple of days I'll get a letter from them with a nice fat cheque in it! ;)
