    Ok lads,


    some might have seen my purchase a while back but turns out I put 1,800GBP into her :eek:.

    quite a long list of repairs but at the price i paid i suppose it was to be expected.

    I was given the run around by one mechanic and kwik fit also were rubbish.

    long story short, needed a new clutch and the whole front drive train was pretty buggered, got a new half shaft from Honda, and passenger side from a breakers.

    parts, labour all $$$

    rear tyre had a bulge also, tracking was off too (kwik fit couldn't even track it right)

    too fast tho..!.

    ah, its ok with me. the way I look at it is a £23k car for just over £4k.

    the last owners hadn't a clue, i took the full whack on all serious repairs sadly., namely the drive shafts.

    good car though, serious speed.. better not quote figures or the HHB will be out.
