Idea is hard to quantify tbh.
Generally laptop & diagnostics kit for mechanics cost the guts of ā¬1000āsā¦.
I wouldnāt be bothered with that tbh

@carryharry or any other posters here who could offer help advice.
Have a 131 Puegout 5008 which is coming very near the end of its life cycle and now an upgrade to another 7 seater is needed.
Want to get to an 18-21 year range. Kind of scarred by the Puegout as it gave lots of small trouble. Iāve heard the the newer model is a lot better. Mrs Pox heard good things about the Skoda Kodiaq.
The higher end Audi/Volvos are this level are out of our budget.
On our second new model 5008.
No issues tbf.
I donāt drive it often, she likes it & I think itās a rotten drive.
But, the 3 x middle seats are unbeatable tbf. High driving position etc.
She loves it.
The Skoda, 7 seats, more powerful, feels bigger etc.
Only issue, you lose 3 x middle seats. Donāt let anyone tell you different.
Just invested in a Tarraco (SEATs offering), as Harry says you lose the three middle seats, but we are kinda gone beyond the child seats so we can make it work easy enough. Didnāt go for the new 5008 based on the engine size, the previous car we had was 2L so we plumped for it again, Mrs OTS likes the extra power. Have heard the 5008 is a fine bus alright and a few friends drive them and are happy enough
Whatās the reason for the increase in the price of tyres? You could get a Hancook tyre off one of those European websites for about ā¬60 about 4 years ago; 85 for same now.
Everything has gone up
Must more expensive to get them delivered I was told,the actual price of the tyres havenāt really gone up.
You buy tyres online? never even considered it
Whatās a car worth in scrap these days?? Clutch gone in my 08 Honda
About ā¬80 maybe?
Would you not fix it?
Break it and scrap the rest
ā¬150 Iād say.
Quoted ā¬1,350 for the clutch fix, the headlights also needed replacing and the glow plugs were acting up, probably the bones of ā¬2k all in to sort it, 200k mls on the clock so didnāt thing it was worth it, passed the NCT alright back in Feb, alloys & tyres are good, canāt imagine anyone wanting it other than for scrap
Ah well, I think youāre being rode with that quote but with the rest considered the graveyard is the place for it.
Clutch + DMF ā¬942
Gearbox oil OEM ā¬34
Labor ā¬280
Got three quotes and this was the cheapest, another fella quoted 2k, crooks
Ffs
Would replacing an alternator clutch pulley be an expensive job?
Any car enthusiasts help a man out!! Budget of about 20k two Childers and doing about 300 miles a week with work whatās my best purchase that will give me security!! Have a Passat so similar size ideally but prob donāt have the budget for another without going too low in the years
