Starts in the morning.

When we bought for scrap, the beast  (Mercedes 300D) would not start without turning the engine repeatedly for about 20 minutes using a set of Jump leads from another car.  Virtually none of the electrics worked.

This morning I went out and turned the key and she spluttered into life unaided for the first time! The only electrics not working are one of the four electric windows and the fold down headrests.

So one days TLC transformed a non started with no electrics into a dream!  This car was going to be scrapped.

What's this all about?

Not the top gear website but one nothing like it. 

Been through a few "what this is" and now settled on my (Stuart McLean's) general blog - mainly about cycling but occasionally anything else chucked in.

I also occasionally write some technical stuff which you can find here.

You can follow me on twitter @stuartm9999.

I record most of my bike rides on runkeeper so you can see them here if you're really bored!
