'Chop'
What's the gap between the windscreen and the surround? Is there a 5mm gap all round or less (just about to get my cut down screen made) :-)

its days like these you think of selling, then you get it running and think why would I ever sell it... currently on the sell idea with two rusted exhaust bolts and a lost dremel!

having spent the last 4 hours under the car griding off rusted exhaust bolts, to discover the original cat had welded studs I'm about to take the grinder to the whole of the car and sell it for its weight in metal! But then tomorrow I will have sorted the exhaust and all will be cool and groovy!

But seriously, 5 grand!! I think they should have showed the valuator the 'restoration' footage before he gave his opinion on value.

i know! that first one they viewed and she wanted £2000 hahahahaa

I think that's the only thing i did agree with on there - the fact that the first one wasn't worth 2 grand.
Everything else was total bo*****s!

I get charge 2.92 for paying my bill, all because I refused a DD because they helped themselves

Nothing wrong with 3, I'm paying £11 for unlimited internet, 5000 texts and 200 minutes, and I get signal everywhere, and haven't had a problem with them

Three are hard to leave, they hassle you and all sorts! Or they did when I finished a contract with them :/ they are pretty cheap for Internet contacts though.

I wouldn't though.. DOT 3 has a lower boiling point. But they are both glycol based so they are compatible
