nothing, just pulled me over and told me he was trying to promote traffic safety etc and I go past at 71!!
Wouldn't be too bad if he didn't keep slowing down allowing me to catch up

Sorry justin tried a few places both jag and ford and unless I have a log book in my name they won't even give me a price. I've got a 2.2 diesel in my tranny van but apparently that is different otherwise I'd get you one for that. Unless you can find out different they won't play ball mate
Look into the transit 57 plate engine an see if you can find out if it would work mate

if the jag one fits (electrical connection) it will work, think there are about 3 types, jag do one and it is cheap, 2.2 transit I believe is the same as some

My top mount plates arrived the other week. Getting all my suspension, drop links an anti roll bar fitted on thursday now. Bit pee'd off as well to be honest. I get a harsh vibration on my car around 3k on wide open throttle in both 5th an 6th. Been followin a thread on here who says its clutch related. Now I had my clutch fitted last year whilst getting my hg done. Phoned the fella an he said the vibration is prob flywheel. He wants £300 just to investigate it. What then happens if it aint that? I'm a bit pee'd as I think it may be the clutch plate. If it is I'm goin to ask him does he then do it for nothing as its not really my fault

Also been thinking about my next car. I was goin to go sensible but if things are still the way they are now with work then I may get an m5. You can get a really good low mileage one for circa 20k now an then get a bmw warranty if its less than 60k miles. I was thinking of a cl63 like jennis but there a bit to expensive. Some fella I know has one an the noise on start up is awesome to the point of wetting yourself haha.

I was watchin a vid on youtune of a standard m5 which is delimited an it hit 172 in 30 seconds haha. Awesome car. You can trundle around on 400hp or press the m button an have 507hp. I like that. Mpg is around 20 so I could also live with that. Just see what the next year pans out like

Had a **** few weeks/months. Firstly her grandad has been diagnosed with cancer. Its his stomach. Hoping he can be strong enough as they've offered him a op which is good. But he's struggling to keep food down at the moment. Also her sister in law, my brother in laws wife, has been admitted to hospital with severe anxiety an depression which she suffers with terribly. Her dad has had an op on his eyes. An then to top it off my auntie has had a severe stroke. So not a good few months or weeks had lately
