Home 3 hours later than usual and the problem was pretty fundamental...it appears I ran out of petrol. Although the OBC gave a range of 50km and there was still nearly a gallon in the tank (it took just over 66ltrs to refill), the engine had other ideas. Odd no?
The frustration I felt standing around for nearly 3 hours waiting for the AA man to appear is offset by the fact I'm not facing a big bill of some sort...just!
