Re: My baby's turning into a money pit!
I've used online automotive (http://www.onlineautomotive.co.uk) for exhaust parts in the past and found them good value for money and pretty quick delivery via citylink.
Happy shopping

Re: Parts for Sale - Haynes Manual - Induction Kit - etc
Good to meet up with you too. Cheers for the parts.
Hope to get the springs fitted this week, once I source a set of compressors!
Theo's finger stopped bleeding eventually!!
That induction kit is a bargain, but I ain't got a turbo
cheers

Re: You've got a bulb out
From personal experience don't think these are on the 'bulb is out' circuit ... anyone else.have you cheacked the Registration lights?
My favourite is the high level brake light which is intermittent, until I slam the hatch and the 'bulb out' light goes dims again! Ah bliss!!
