My very little but bloody annoying rattle was around the speedo/rev counter area. Stuck a bit of paper under the speedo and its gone. How sophisticated!

Ajmoir says it was Friday am. Even worse. :rolleyes:
I think his car will be fine eventually. Just a temporary little tantrum me thinks!
Just enjoy it Ajmoir and give it a good thrashing.
