my car returned

yep he did. Ben's doing the work. That's the problem with these cars, lot's of little niggles can just come out of nowhere. Fact of life I suppose. My wife would have shot me if I'd bought it and it had spent that much time with the grease monkeys though. Worth it though, they are such nice cars and mine was free with the refurb box I bought so replacing my knocky power steering pump should pass unnoticed in the domestic budget

. Would like Ben to do it this half term but no word yet as to his availability.

Just don't examine the paint too closely, three different colours you say lol

. At least according to the lasers it's straight thank god. I think it has been sloshed with brake fluid in a past life.

Now has sport contact threes on it, very pointy compared to autogrip budget nasties it was on before.
