So far nothing because "he" is sitting somewhere in the store and waiting for me to buy "him".

I just woke up some minutes ago and I don't have too many big plans besides making and drinking a hot coffee and sitting in the bed with my laptop one more hour. :P

New brake light switch, oil and filter change and 3 new tyres. Luckily the spare is full size and had a brand new full size Michelin still with stickers on so was able to save a bit on that. 2 new Dunlop SP Sports on the front. Got a good deal via ATS as Blackcircles couldn't deliver to their fitter until the weekend. As I had a bulge on the sidewall I thought that for the sake of £20 I'd go with the deal I got on the Dunlops...  My credit card now hurts.  :laugh:


Keeping schtum. Mostly.

think i've finally managed to stop my exhaust from banging around and also rubbing and vibrating on the beems under the car.  :smiley: had to take a hacksaw to the bolts on the clamps to do it.

Weeks of annoying noises may finally be over!!

hang on, heatshiled still rattles.   :sad: thats for another day!
