1916 Model T (accidental one shot pop and bang damage)

A few weeks ago while driving the T it cut out for a second (probably clipped the key with my foot) when it fired after it made the most amazing BANG from the exhaust.

New back box housing needed.

Fogstar battery delayed again?

Got a call from my installer saying that my Fogstar battery is now due mid/end June, it was pushed back from mid April to end of May and now delayed again to mid/late June.

Just wondering if anyone else has been told the same ?

I have the 48kwh on order, but thinking about ordering a 16kwh one from www.itstechnologies.uk as an interim (used as a spare backup in the future to connect if I have issues with the 48kwh one)

Had an unforseen stop on the way back from a car show.

Our Model T decided to take a breather on the way back from a local car show, of course the wife had to get the obligatory "can't park there mate" photos while me and my grandfather persuaded the car to start again.

Turns out "there ain't no gas in it" was accurate and the incline of the bridge starved the car of petrol (should have just put more in to start with lol)

This is with my TAG charizard that got back today and my latest return from ace.

The mewtwo was painful, and the 2 black star greninja where a gamble.

But pretty happy so far, going to be sending off some more soon to bulk out this collection.

I keep looking at buying some of the ascended heros chase cards as "normally" you're far better off just buying the singles.

But the gengar is £1000 raw, Dragonite £625 and Mewtwo £350 all absolutely insane prices for a new set.

All well outside of the realms of what I think is reasonable for a card.

Ideally id trade for them but even tho I have many chase cards from other sets the price difference is just absolutely insane lol

So does anyone think these inflated prices will fade away or are they here to stay ?

Shame it didn't get a 10 (traded an ace 10 greninja from twilight masquerade) plus some extra lesser raw cards for this back in December

Thanks to "grade with tag" for a brilliant service (tag turn around is just slow)greninja twilight masquerade

My sister's 2019 Ateca has developed a pretty bad water leak (header tank empties itself daily) she has stopped driving it other than to the main dealer, the main dealer has advised it's the water pump that needs replacing however when I looked a few days ago the water looked to be coming from the top of the right side of the engine (when looking from the front of the engine bay)

Iv taken pictures of where I could see the water pooling (it was dripping from the underside of this component as well) the water leak here was "fresh" pink antifreeze mix rather than the dirty water found near the undertray.

Could anyone advise on what this component is so we can request the garage to investigate this further before they change the pump.
