Well, there's a first time for everything I suppose.
Was cruising down the A41 yesterday afternoon, and on approach to the M25 J20 started to lose power. The acceleration was a little jittery beforehand whilst on cruise control so I knew something was up. Anyway, car stopped at traffic lights. Wouldn't restart.
Called breakdown out. Worked out it was a fuel problem. Suddenly realised I had put V-Power unleaded into the car. I had about 7 litres of diesel left, but filled the tank so 8 mins down the road she'd had enough.
Whilst being winched onto the trailer, a maroon A2 with parking sensors passed me. Oh the shame of it, my poor car on the trailer, and all my fault!!
So, now I await the bill from my local garage. I'm just really hoping that there is no significant damage done to injectors etc. I've been scaring myself silly last night with Google research. No idea of the cost so I'm probably going to need to be sitting down.
