    I'm just trying to find a set of four replacement wheel nuts and don't have a clue where to look. I found a set which are for alloys on amazon. Can anyone see any reason why these wouldnt work? Or if anyone knows anywhere that's sells replacement wheel nuts Id appreciate it.

    I suppose the last time I rang looking for parts they said every time a focus mk2 comes in its stripped and there's nothing left in them huge demand for parts for them but I'm sure they might have wheel nuts. I remember someone on here changed focus lock nuts recently and got new one in an Irish place but I can't the thread. My mechanic said there 10. Euro plus each at a main dealer so I don't want to pay that either for them.

    Went into Halfords for a hydraulic jack, about to buy one for 36.99, then looked to the right and they had a whole set including said jack for just a bit over €40, girl at the till didnt believe me as it was coming up on her system at 74.99:eek: I had to call a manager to show him the sign, he took the sign to the till and threw it in the bin but gave it to me at that price.

    Driving home from Donegal today and passed some DB9's and The Dukes of Hazard car, some sweet motors up there, 4.5 hours drive from Kilkenny to Letterkenny. I took the scenic route home and passed through Navan, saw some interesting cars there ;)

    And an average of 10% savings over what they would spend otherwise.
    Our meters allow you to see exactly what and where you're spending and unlike other companies that just give an estimate.

    Does this count as shilling? I haven't mention who it's for. :p

    @jou: I'm not sure what to do with that. :o

    One of the nicer shapes of Civic too. Wonder if the DL reg is putting people off? At the same time, I guess demand for those Civics probably isn't what it used to be too.
