I wouldn't be surprised to see you two at Silverstone with a smashed Redbull on the truck, get a few parts off Eddy and Kent auto's and you's have it back on track in time for the next practice👍 You do not hang about with these jobs! You said you had an hour and a half to wait so we'll do the bits we can and wait! WAIT?Most people would take an hour and half just to put a new wishbone on! My local took/charged me for two hours to fit a top mount, as I ain't got the tools and it's a crap job. You would have done it in 20 minutes by the look of it👍👍 Happy new year to you and all, let's hope it's a good one!

Here in France, the car is insured, not the driver, so if someone nicks it and hits someone, everyone is covered. People here still go for third party only, which is strange as fully comprehensive is not much dearer. It's also handy for those occasions when you might need to drive someone home, or someone needs to borrow your car.

Got to say guys been waiting for you to come back! Happy new year. I did my first car vertical the other day. I was after a cheap run around and say one, I asked the seller if there was mot advisories before I came to see the car but never got an answer. I ran the check and a list as long my arm came up mot advisories, except the same advisories came up over two years and the same faults. Going further into the report is was a cat N and before that a cat C, now I've nothing against that, it was the fact it wasn't declared so to me that was a bit of a red flag.

I have a ds3 and have had it 6 months, i have had gear box issues, which the dealer sorted for me. The fuse blow on the screen wash, door hinge needed sorting, boot raiser needed changing, On New Years eve my front spring broke after going down a pot hole. I have been luck in that it hasnt costs me to have these repairs down the dealer took the cost. They are nice cars, I would say there noise from outside takes a lot of getting used to. The parts seems cheap enough, no road tax. I have a diesel one in black. At least we know the two experts on these cars

What a nice one, to start the year. There is a bit more work to be done, but with you two on the job, unless something really horrid, turns up it should now be a screwdriver and spanner job to take it to the paint shop. What a horrid way to end the old owner's celebration, I feel for them. New brakes and disks should silence the only remaining issue. The problem of two possible parts for a vehicle caught out my windscreen supplier, the correct one is the one on back order, of course. I just hope it will not take too long to turn up, currently it is an elastic 6 weeks, I am counting.
