well, long time nothing from claire on her car, it's still booting along getting her to the places she needs to go everyday
had it's first "breakdown" though two weeks ago, heater core started leaking so it overheated.
thanks to the donation of parts from a couple of the datto blokes, it has another heater core in her and carpet all dried out, also a new windscreen washer bag as hers started leaking
if only i could convince claire to spend money on it to fix it up a bit, but alas... there apparently is someone in the world tighter than mik 
one bonus of her car overheating... i made her drive my manual corolla ae101 home... first time she's driven manual, hopefully a few more drives and she'll be keen on a gearbox for her datto. would make that thing fly and be more economical at the same time... win win!
we did talk of buying her a new micra one day... the next day she looked at me and said sincerely "i'm not ready to let go of my datsun yet" so she'll be booting it around for a while yet
