Ok, so now I get this:

Alternator failed, did drove 240km to home with constantly dropping voltage as alternator did not do it's job at all.
Driving 240 is more trouble free and cheaper?
Quick lesson to all, replace voltage regulator package every time you change timing belt, it is only 9 euros, but will prevent this:jtbo wrote:Ok, so now I get this:

Had to replace the one on ChiP a while ago. They normaly do about 90 - 100,000 miles (CHiP is has now done over 200,000 miles)
Also now fitted new head lights and running on GLt rims. Shocks will be teh next job I think

Shocks needed here too, I guess there is shocks at front, but they just don't do anything at all, front bounces rather freely up and down.classicswede wrote:Had to replace the one on ChiP a while ago. They normaly do about 90 - 100,000 miles (CHiP is has now done over 200,000 miles)

Any fancier new car and that alternator incident would had cost at least 1000-2000 for me (depending if any friend had been nearby or not), now 9 euros, just need to work bit more to get it repaired so that it actually is reliable.
Should not really complain
I have now new xenon H7 conversion kit to install for extra spots, let's see if I get installed them at this weekend or not
