At Last

You may remember the last post and the dodgy Aston electrics.  Finally found the fuse box, lifted the carpet, removed the floor panel, and presto a fuse box.  All I knew was I was looking at a 23 amp fuse.  There were three, all fine.  No little tweezers in the fuse box, you have to supply your own or have tiny teeny fingers.

After checking all the fuses were fine.  So put it all back together again and the window works.  Sort of, it just wont do the little jump when you close the door to fit it snugly back in the hood.  Well next week it goes in for its service so Aston can sort it out.  Can't wait to see what they have to say for themselves.

Had a brochure for new Peugeot 508 in the post yesterday.  Seems like a nice car but the brochure is just bland.  Nothing to get you excited at all.  Just a few little pictures and wheels colours and lots of pictures of seats !  Now I have been looking at car brochures for years (sad but true), and it seems with the use of the Internet and tools such as car configurators it would seem the good old brochure may be heading the way of the dinosaur.  Do boys still run around car shows with carrier bags bulging with brochures ?

Its not always a given that the dealer will offer you one.  My last three dealer visits 2 offered brochures and the with the third you had to try hard to prise his card out of his hand.  So anyone have a favourite brochure and should we be preserving them before its all too late ?
