Well, yesterday i spent 2.5 hours cleaning the thick mud from the underside of my car and removable front after taking part in the Chelmsford Motor Club Targa Rally (Came 2nd in class, and 23rd overall) Today i drove it to work as my trusty (Not so much anymore) steed's (Mondeo estate 2.0 TDCI) injectors have packed up again, or one at least.

Good luck getting the inner CV through the subframe with the Rubber boot attached. I did this and couldn't get it through the hole without taking the boot off the CV. Look very nice thou

I just had mine refurbished in the 2004 Focus after 170,000 miles. I really can't complain at that sort of mileage.  :lol:

Nothing to the mini's but mini related. New uber large consumer unit with potential for more electrical equipment. Two 16 amp sockets rings installed for my new spot welder and for the compressor which we get in the near future.

Fiddled about all afternoon with the ride heights which were way out, got them down to within 5mm (depending on how you bounce the car about :-) )
