Anyone know if you can replace the bolt on the front shock absorber mount? Or should I replace the whole mount?

Replace the whole mount. There will most likely be a lot of rust behind it that needs protecting.

Bloody water pissing out of my rad, maybe driving 150 motorway miles a day isn't such a good thing :(

Yeah she does. They have a few of them. One they have is a blind radio presenter. I remember there being a program on each of them. Hats off to C4 i say.

Im pretty sure she said handjob at one point so I imagine they only put her on after the watershed. Fair play to them though.

Mini .. alternator squealing and annoying me. Think the bearing has gone. Whats the best way to get the bottom bolt out / loose?! I can't get near it! (before I drive the car into a wall to stop the noise)

Aldon in Brierley Hill? Although you may have to wait, as we had to wait 3 months before we could get in with the TVR, they were that busy.

can't go wrong with mk1 grill rear lights and 10's. Mk1 are the most desirable so no harm in replicating something that looks awesome :)
