Take the car to them and they'll see for themselves.

No come back then.

Yeah that’s what I did originally and today. It was pissing down so fitted one cap which I was happy with and did the others when I got home. Lesson learned.

My list is begining to look rather similar to yours but I enjoy doing it, if I wanted zero maintenance I'd buy a brand new car on finance and be eternally bored at its reliability

So much for being a long life exhaust, since fitting the new exhaust mounts the centre box join has split and now blowing. Further more the crap build is a cat back one piece exhaust....... time to fit the replacement.

On a better note I removed the washer pumps today and got those working.

Fabia splitter arrived today, will bash that on tomorrow.

Now I have to decide on what I do next as I want to focus on the cup. Might sell as I don’t want to commit to paint whilst putting the cup back on the road. when I got this I wasn’t expecting to find a cup so cant have it all.

We don't all have space for too many clio's ?. And I don't see a black gold in your museum yet!

I'm out of space, 8 cars now and the next one is another estate so really need to make some room.
