What your Most embarrassing break down?
#42
Only type of breakdown I've had was the day of pugfest I bought my DT with the hope of taking it their, I was so happy I thought great I have a nice low 3dr black DT I can finally fit in haha, got it home from wales and thought great I have a few hours till I need to be at pugfest I'll swap some bits over from my previous car (1.4) I took the steering couling off to find a bodged imobilizer which had snapped the wires as I took the surround off. I thought nothing of this and proceeded to get my new car ready for the event. I spend a good 4 hours changing bits and making it look nice and presentable little to my knowladge did I relies that the immobiliser actually cut off my fuel to the engine Dodgy so when we finally packed the car and was ready for a great weekend I tried starting the car and nothing.... It just turned over but never fired. My heart sank and I felt so low. So I had to come to the show in my blue standard 306 which was about a 1000ft higher than the rest of the cars their.

Moral of the story don't f*ck around with you're car the morning of an event.
