so still waiting on my bonnet and dash lol , did say no rush to both of them!

But that doesnt meant i havnet been spending money! Sadly this time it was just to fix the car rather than mod's

bairing collapsed , driveshaft snapped and flange chewed up ! expensive times !

Fordy parts for the RS are scary! ;
£430 drive shaft
£198 flange
£52 bearing
£12 hub nut
£3 circlip

so after this !

Fair play fella - you've been busy and a fellow ringer!

(although many purist would be fuming at what you've done to such a low mileage FRS)

Like the seats very much
