I never got round to replacing my in tank pump on my auto GLT estate.

The wining noise of pump under car when under a 1/3rd full still does it. I have had no driving issues over 9 years and 74,000miles!

I probably won't ever replace it as car used as a shed even though fully road legal. I start it once a week and take it for a drive to get the oil fully hot and tyres to prevent flat spots.

Cars do suffer for not being used. Will probably need new disks and pads for MOT in October as going very rusty even though not that old. I don't use handbrake to prevent it seizing on.

May end up selling it, as needs some a small patch welding on passenger door sill, heater fan not working, engine bay oily mist, needs breather cleaned. Slight leak from matrix pipe or matrix. Rusty arches, general good clean and tlc. Done 234,000 and auto so guess not worth much.
