haha as if!

had a msg from my cousin in canada after i posted the pics on FB... he said they looked 'flaky' and the car should never be worked on without the proper stick thing being in place ...why?? the boot lid never falls on my head  :undecided:

Canadians are weird people.

Where all my moneys went.

just been out and the roads wet and my car literally slipped around a corner  :undecided: ( felt like it came from back passenger side )

the tyre on the back passenger side is bald, meant to get it done when heat shield was removed but havent got time to get in as yet.. and cant change it myself as i havent got a locking nut

cant be beacuse of 1 tyre tho can it?
brakes need doing too, grinding and squeeky in reverse

ill go in in the morning to get the tyre.. but is it likely to be that? i put the kids in the car daily and now im a bit worried

shelagh x

Yes it can be because of one tyre, get that sorted asap whether you have kids in it or not, you don't want to end up in the ditch...
