Was in friends car tonight, and on our way back to mine to drop me off.. the following happened.

We paid our 80p to the boy in the Bridge Toll Booth, and as my friend was pulling away, the car cut out. She wasnt booting it, revving it or anything, just pulled away and it cut out.

Trying to restart the car was pointless, the first 2 times the starter was turning VERY slowly, and if you try to start the car now, you get nothing...... absolutely nothing, the ignition lights/interior lights/dashboard lights go off, and as soon as you return to the "turn 2 position" they all come back on.

The guy from the RAC reckons its the battery, however, trying to jump start it off his van gave nothing at all.. exactly same result.. which to me, point to other things cause surely it would kick into life when running off his van. Nothing happened when we tried to bump start it either.

The car has had a recon'd engine fairly recently from a reputable source.. so dont think that has given up. Or at least if it has, I hope it hasnt infected my car while Im tryin to punt it!!

Im just lookin for a wee bit of input from peeps on here, cause I dunno what it could be like.


Cheers,
Grant
