I decided today that I should realy do something about the 940 wagon I have sitting about. It's a 940 manual overdrive. Ran beautifully apart from the fact that it had an intermittent Turbo fault. The Turbo used to seize, the car lost all power, and after a while there'd be a loud squeek and it'd work properly for a while again.

Today I opened the bonnet and sitting on top of the engine is a HUGE rabbit.

There are rabbit hairs everywhere, it's eaten the HT leads, the windscreen washer hose, the wiring to the indicators, the wiring to the washerpumps, The coolant hose coming off the bottom of the expansion bottle (shouldn't the antifreeze have killed it?)

Now I knew I'd left it sitting too long, and I expected to have to do some additional stuff like the brakes as a penalty for neglecting it for nine months, but I really hadn't expected it to be attacked by an antisocial rabbit!

I guess the qu4estion is in the balance, do I fix it, or tow it to the scrapyard. It's an exceptionally straight car but there could be all sorts of stuff I haven't spotted. GRRRRRR
