Buslady,
Call your usual mechanic and ask him what the probabilities are that ALL
FOUR of your CV's are "gone". Chances are one broke, one's on it's last
legs, and two are worn but still serviceable. Ask your mechanic if he
can help you out with some used ones to replace the worst ones. Run on
them and the serviceable ones you have now, and save up for the ones
that go bad later.
Let us know what you come up with, maybe someone on the list has some
good CV's they would let go cheap.
Of course, if you really WANT a smaller, less thirsty car...?
