So Richie were they easy enough to fit and did you have to drill the body also. Have you taken the bonnet support away to save weight. LOL

Piece of **** to fit, no drilling required.
Just some WD40 to loosen the original bolts, bit of thread lock to assemble the strut ends and a touch of grease on the joints.

Cutting down on the pies to save weight
But the new footie season is about to start so pie count may rise to an unhealthy level

This is a new company owned and run by a fellow enthusiast who could contribute and improve any forums technical threads. Harry, the owner has been open since March, like any new business he wants to build up regular clients who know that he won’t rip them of or cut corners.
After owning many limited edition scoobs and currently undertaking a recondition project on a Lanier Delta HF Turbo, he would like to see more of the cars he is used to going up on the ramps.
Well worth checking out his rates and other services.

How much you charge for a wash at your place micky? My cars ******* filthy, needs a good clean, since the missus keeps missing bit's.

You offer TTS discount or maybe a birthday freeby since I'm 30 on monday.

P.S ****ty link mustn't have delivered your new mean machine, cos it would have been in bits when it arrived most likely. Had to deliver one a while back n it arrived at the branch fooked.

It's the gay 80's biker's club
For the life of me I remember watching that as a kid but can't remember anything about it. Too much Knightrider, A Team and TJ Hooker for me.

Any predictions for the first home game tomorrow then?
What ever the result Souness must go and soon

Whats the score with dealerships. Went to CD Brammall in Heaton this afternoon to get a price for a set of coil packs. Wouldn't give me a price cos my cars an import. To the best of my knowledge coil packs are dealer only parts, so how the **** are you meant to get dealer only parts if they won't sell them to you. I knew a dealer wouldn't service an import but not supplying parts is ridiculous.


Any ideas?

Any idea how much they're gonna set me back, cos this car is starting to owe me a lot of fcukin money now. Pretty sure I've got gearbox probs again.
