Wotcher Plantie - just thought I'd bring this back to the top for you!

Hope you're bedding those Prodrive brakes in carefully now!

C U Thursday, if not before

Scott,

I had an expert on it fella! Thats why it runs so well , I don't mind paying a little bit more to get it done right.

Besides I had my brakes done for £1300 in the end.

Try and get a better deal than that.

Not sure fella

I paid three hours labour and got a good price on the springs. Never phoned Tyres Northampton.

Springs - 145 + 171 labour.

In fact, just been reading the threads on the eibachs and most are saying TN do it for 200 quid fitted plus VAT. Now that is a bargain if its true

That's what I thought!

The additional money that you've spent Plantie could have gone towards getting the Bump Steer done as well!

I guess I'll be going to Tyres Northampton, and then on to Power Station to get it all done then for almost the same amount then.

BTW Plantie, have you seen what Topcat is selling? You could have saved yourself a few hundred pounds there as well!!

Right that's it, I'm gonna have to resort to selling my body to gain extra money! As I've decided that I'm in the wrong job as you seem to be spending a fortune Plantie!

Second thoughts, I don't think I'd get much for it!

At least when we're parked next to each other (and the only time I stand a chance of being with you Plantie ) I could use your spoiler as an ironing board!

LOL Neil, - more like handbags at dawn!!

One thing's for sure - neither of them will be throwing food around on Thursday night as they'll both be too busy eating it!

Aha, I spy a cunning plan to let my car keep up with Scott & Plantie - get them so fat that the weight slows their cars down!

Right, back off under my rock til 2moro.

C Ya,
Steve
