hi mate,

yes, i remembered yesterday, so went and had a moan.

she basically said that i shouldnt start worrying jut yet
as if there is a backlog, then the higher priority ones will be delivered first....

one thing ive just thought of though, someone sent me a cheque from the birmingham area (closer than you). it was a normal envelope with a first class stamp.....4 days to reach me

.....so..looks like it may still arrive, someday

cheers, ian

Well done mate, this has been an interesting read.
Good to meet you at Donnington, Think I was in the pit garage changing my wheels when you left.
I see you live close to Donnington, I'll let you know when I do another track day there. It'll be good to meet up again.

Paul, silver Legacy.

Ian

I have been reading through the post with interest and i may well be e-mailing you with some questions next week when i start to stip mine down.

How can you tell if the Syncro's are warn without having the box in the car to drive it???? - i need to know as i picked up a cheap box (£50) and i don't want to go to all the hassle of fitting it just incase something is wrong.
