Hello,
Hermione, my lovely wee Vauxhall Astra is sick.
The following things are wrong:
1. The alarm does not work
2. The lock does not work (managed eventually to lock it manually)
3. Probably most crucially: it does not start. The engine doesn't even turn over at all.
It was fine a week ago - I drove it round the block to check when we were sill planning on driving down south. The thing that have gone wrong happened all at once, which suggest perhaps a dead battery? And yet the lights still work, and also the dashboard lights.
Any advice? I have breakdown cover but not homestart :(. If it is the battery, does anyone live nearby and maybe have any jump leads?
She's too pretty to die so young.
