LOL I havent seen Mark inlong time cant wait though to bump into him it will happen one day and hey i might be able to recover some money off him that he owes us. Ive seen him twice driving around since the barn and both times he has just driven off pritty quick and couldnt catch him as i was going the other way intraffic. I have spoken to his dad at the Market and he reckons he hasnt seen him in a long time and that the market stall belongs to him and not Mark dont know what to believe :P He might even be on here with a different name we will never know. Hey it wasnt me driving that night that was mark lol he lost the trailer lol.

I don't know why you'd bother putting a £200+ hornet front panel on a mini? It seems a bit of a waste of money unless it's on an actual hornet.

I like the attempt at something new, its always nice to see something intervidual imho.

John started to warm up with me. had a few good chats with him once id been in there a few times but the first few times he was a right grumoy old git! If i had somewhere else that close to go to I would have, he didnt promote repeat business! But like i said i had a few good chats with him after a while. but to me a good businessman should be welcoming to all customers, no just ones hes gotten to know

Same here mate he was very grumpy to me when i started to go down there your right mate he should be ok from the start. He's ok i only go down there when i really need to i go to somerfords they are always great always helpfull and the parts they deal in are very good its worth the 30 mins drive out there.

update on sooty's car he called me tonight he is going to wire mesh the rest of the frontend and leave the mini indicaters in so that will be intresting im going around monday and take some piccys.
