hey whats up..

where in the south west are you? i'm in taunton..

how bad is the click?  i've heard that if you put the car in 2nd before putting in reverse it stops it..

mine used to do it.. but its stopped doing it lately.. i woudlnt worry! lol
Used to have a '97 MK3 16v GTI 3dr in 'Black Magic'... now have a '55 Civic Type-S...
