Small update:
Got married recently so been on my honeymoon to Wales, went on whats becoming a yearly drive with vtcarl and a few others. All in all the car has done close to 1000 miles this week trouble free might i add but was filthy. Pic doesn't show just how bad it was.



Then i thought ive had my wishbone polybushes for almost 7 months so its about time i fit them, so popped to a garage to get them to take the old bushes out an hour later i had this ready to fit.



What a difference really please with them, also by the time i had finished my big driving week my exhaust had given up and was blowing like a trooper, popped to the local exhaust place and once again 15 min later i had a new one of these fitted.



Then it brings me to the last bit last night i popped out to be greated by a metal twang when i went over a bump, got home to check and the 13mm in the rear arb end plate had snapped clean off. Today i popped to wickes in the mrs car to get a decent 7mm drill bit as the shite one i had slipped and started to oval the hole out so i drilled a new hole in the end plate and trailing arm, tapped an m8 thread out and sorted like new, no more noises.



Thats it tbh car is running sweet as a nut and im loving it tbh.

Cheers dan
