Well, last saturday i thought it might be great to go down to some sand dunes with my mates n tow them (and me) behind the car on tarpolines and body boards... which we did and i was great fun... however something strange happened... while driving i heard a large "kasplat" sound under the car, and when i stopped to see what it was, boiling hot radiator fluid was all over the ground. i sat and pondered where this might have come from, popped the bonnet n check al my hoses n everything for leaks... but there was nothing...
so i let the car cool down incase i had overheated it (the temp guage was pretty high)... and drove on, frequently letting the car cool down... as we got closer to the exit track however more and more white smoke was pouring out the exhaust... this could only mean the head was blown and water oil and radiator fluid were being burnt...
So we get to a service station and pump up my tyres, and drive 1km to my mates cousins house where we call the RAC and get a tow back to my house...
Today the mechanic calls up after spending a few hours looking at the heap of shit that is my engine... its broken good... the engine is now good for an oversized paperweight or doorstop...
So, the suzuki needs a new engine... i can pay $2210 for a full reconditioned 1.3l engine, or $3400 for a full reconditioned 1.6l vitara engine with a new raditator and hoses... i pick the vitara. its an upgrade i was planning on doig some day and i know ill kick myself if i dont do it while i have the chance.
So now i have to pay my dad $3400... at about $60 a week cos my apprenticeship wages wont allow me to pay much more... this means the next 18 months will be spent paying off my engine unless i win lotto or someone buys my vector artworks...
So until next wednesday ill be without a car, which will be 1.5 weeks carless... i have to admit though, not paying for fuel is a great thing... ive spent a total of about $10 this week on lunch... and riding my bike around the place can only make me fitter, right?
