Quick winter update. Nothing new to the outside, but has just had two recon driveshafts fitted, gear oil change and some nice new shell helix into the engine. Front brake hoses looked worse for wear so replaced and fluid flush and change.Also straightened up my toyo sport once and for all. Didnt...

All these colour names are confusing what happened to old fashioned blue silver and black lol Mr beer does indeed have a white 172 cup. Theres a liquid yellow in the lee mill area now as i found the bloke taking photos parked next to mine at tesco haha.

Yea ive seen a few nice examples around, but then equally as many shockers lol

As above, anyone off here that was having a play with my ff off the lights this morning. Car looked super clean!

Rear sill stone chip protectors

A few from my days moorland photo whoring A few things added to the 'to do list' This scratch bugs hell outta me some gotta be done And my toyo sport continues to sit on the piss...so new clamps and poly mounts on order Next up will be deciding to just refurb my wheels or go...

Hopefully devons finest constables dont pester me over my pressed plates like they did on my bora

Quick update...dvla got theyre s**t together and plates are now on

As i said i have found documented history of a belt change now, was done at renault main dealer and at 39,000 miles and only 18 mnths-2 years ago. I believe in specialists being worth there weight in gold for some things in particular....But...(know im opening up a huge debate now) are you...

I think i will leave out the dephaser as it silent. The waterpump im unsure of tho....ony old astra the bearing went in waterpump then boom off came the belt and destroyed the engine big time. Now rather weary of pumps lol

Thomas- i know its a ff so both cup packs not cup. Cheaper option is without waterpump etc but sensible to do it all whilst in there and accessible

Thats what i got quoted today from nearest specialost on here. Thats for cambelt aux dephaser waterpump and rocker seal tho

Its having the spare 800 quid atm tho, even tho i know it makes sense

Okay so having thought about this alot i set about finding history on my car. I know have the service book which is showing a main dealer service and timing belt change at 39,200 miles in 2011. So when would it be next due if thats correct?
