Re: The Nationals 2010-from Devon-the story.......
Not only - but also...
This was the trip home from collecting this car.
The car came to rest exactly as you see it - flat battery, no charging - small stream flowing under the car - steady rain.
House we stopped outside was the only house which had a light showing.
Occupant turned out to be a friend of Sue's.!
He had a battery charger..!!
Can't argue with stuff like that.
Photo was me repairing the fanbelt.

For anyone interested ( anyone??? ) 
My TC averaged just over 33mpg over the 915 miles driven these four days. Not bad considering it was fully laden. 
 
And not taking into account the petrol Kev 'borrowed'! :roll:
