A Very Stuborn Metro

With the help of my friend Dom, I spent an hour or so trying to resurrect the Metro (his car, his petrol and so zero cost to me!). Once rolling I can scrap it, get £60 and then start making some real money!



We started by trying to gain access to the car as there are no keys. It was amazing how with a screwdriver and a hammer how easy it was to smash the lock and open the door! It had probably been 7 years since anyone has been inside that car, but it smelled more like 70 years... We did find loads and loads of service history in the boot, though!

Next came the tyres. We connected an electric pump, however it soon became clear that all the tyres are completely useless as the rubber has deteriorated to leave huge great holes.



This has left me with three options:

1) Leave this car and find another one completely
2) Try and find someone who is happy to pay for the scrap value of the car, despite it not being able to be rolled anywhere
3) Try and find someone who is happy to give me a set of wheels for free

Hhhmmm... this is getting complicated!
