Evening chaps. I've had the o/s driveshaft replaced 2 months ago. All good. Coilovrs fitted and down 35-40mm, and Tracking done. All good. Bit all of a sudden it's started to knock a little over bumps at low speed and steering left and right. It's probably doing it at higher speeds but...

Spent some hard earned on the car recently, and I have to say Im enjoying it again after a winters worth of not being happy with it visually. Picked up some wheels from JR on here, needed a refurb. The wheels specialist did a fantastic job on them, they were bubbled, scuffed and in...

Bought ages ago for £68, epic ebay find, but never got round to getting it sprayed, as these things do. So i got the better half to get it sprayed for my 22nd. Well happy with it, the camera makes it look slightly off colour, but its a 99.9% match considering its 7 yeards old! Enjoy ;)...
