Trust me it works pal I've done it before! I had a caller kept doing that on our house phone, ruled out it wasn't any of my mates as they don't have my house phone. They kept ringing so I had a whistle to hand and blew it proper loud! Never heard someone scream so loud down the phone before, needless to say, they never prank called again

I found a tiny pink shoe in my car today. From the size of it I guess its for a Barbie doll or similar

The rear washer bottle is on 1993 cars, and yours may be an earlier one for a 1989 car, so one bottle. No biggie

My mates used to complain about this when we were at university but I never had a problem. I must just have had my finances in better check.

Hey Richie,
I'm going to be using a relative's shop in Swindon, it's called Thamesdown Car Body Repairs. They do a lot of snazzy export cars to Dubai with all the trims & rims fitted so a mini is no trouble. Sadly someone tried to crowbar my passenger-side door so it needs to be pin pulled and welded. Thought I'd get it sprayed whilst I'm there!

How much do people think a front end respray would cost in Electric blue? All new panels, wings, front etc?

okayy.. sorry man.. and i really dont think it's possible to quote something like that. some garages charge £30 an hour while others my charge £45-70 per hour.. Some even will just say £900 whatever happens. It completely depends on the place you take it and what finish you're expecting..
Others might have a different opinion, but thats what i think..

We're having a TVR sprayed at the moment, the entire car being painted, along with any final prep (pin holes etc), in metallic orange, price is going to be £1800 - £2200. But as mentioned above, you could get a different quote from every place you try.
