    she passed the MOT!! only fail was one of the rear brake cylinders which i replaced in 10 minutes, and only cost 10.94! however i have found a volvo... so this is for sale. open to offers, as i need it gone, but as it has a years ticket on it, £600 seems a good starting point!

    yeah those speakers are good value for money, but if youre on a tight budget, id get a headunit first. i have a jvc in mine now and its very very good for what it is, couple of my friends asked me if i have a subwoofer (which i dont have installed atm) but the standard speakers aren't too bad...

    cheers guys! yeah the engine crane/car lift is a great way to make life easier when working underneath a car. i've done the axle stand + jacks + wheels + whatever looks flat and tall, but i always ended up hating working on the car like this but this time it was quite fun, which is how it...
