It certainly is, one of the photos is from outside his house, another photo on the beach has Mel in the passenger seat. Not seen Paul on here for a while. I wonder why, its a nice car. Perhaps he is after a change. Certainly a good quality car.

Unfortunately it's not exciting, you see our Dodge has broken down and after spending lots of money trying to get it fixed it looks like it'll cost a fortune to get it done. So now it has to be sold as ' for repair' which means that I have to sell my car to get another family runabout, and with the remains of that plus what the Dodge sells for I will try to get something nice for fun......a sad time indeed.

damn Paul - that sucks.
Can you not get by with a couple of tandem bicycles with trailors for the shopping?

We looked into that but with Mel's back I'd be doing all the pedalling, she'll think it's cruise control.

So what's wrong with the Dodge then???

It has no brakes. The pedal went rock hard and the garage said it was the vaccum pump, so a lot of money later( it's also a fuel pump) and still no go. So they sent it to a Dodge specialist who said it was still the pump, so more money later still no brakes. They suspect it could now be the servo unit. Unfortunately it is tucked well away and probably entails dropping the whole front sub frame to get to it. So now having no money to fix it, it has to go.

I've looked at it and that's as far as it's got. The servo is mounted in the corner of the engine bay, and cannot be pulled out from behined the shock tower,engine and A/C hard lines simply no room.
The main dealer even says the book time says whenever it's done, so it's a massive job that the main dealer said they don't want to do.

You can't get something normal for what you sold the Dodge for?
