Just got back with it 8O Sweet jesus, I had 50p 20p bum hole the whole way...

The belt squeal doesnt stop much, so sitting at traffic lights dreading the noise as it pulled off and continued well into 4th gear. The gear knob movement is epic. The wheel wobble 8O The headlights, I would have been better with my phone light :D

And the speedo not lighting up either so I couldnt see what I was travelling, although I knew it was around 50 due to the steering wheel :mad:

Should be a good little project to sort out the bits you pair neglected :D

I'll have a mooch about in the morning and see whats going on with them... I'm guessing they're gonna be stupidly tight. Wheels swapped in the morning too, then i'll take it out in the day light.

It does shift though :cool:

Didn't even light up with a thump on the dash? I'm used to driving proper turds so it felt normal to me :chuckle:

It was always happy being spanked everywhere though! 8)

Gaga, they been on there that long!?! Think it was parked up soon after as I'm sure the 2011 MOT was its first on the computerised system. What did it fail on? I remember floor and a wishbone and possibly tyres.
