How do you pronounce 'either'? I say 'either', but some say 'either'. Either is correct.

it went rotten everywhere, sills inner and outer arches jacking points boot floor

This car had so much abuse and im suprised it lasted as long as it did, it had nearly 220k when i broke it and still ran as sweet as a nut, M20 b20's are bombproof, pity, the power wouldnt even pull yer socks off :chuckle:

Look at some of the pics where its gone a bit errr frilly, you can see on this one


Click the pic to make it bigger

The last straw was when the shock came away from its mount on the inner arch 8O
