I'm sorry, 50 quid for a pair of bulbs? "Only"?

Being as it's a nice sunny day I have put the winter wheels on - roll on some snow.

Been driving over the single track roads over the tops to avoid temporary lights and closed roads due to floods this week. Had a bad knocking noise a coulple days ago and steering wheel felt a little off center, assumed it was rear shocks (did front shocks earlier in the year). Nope, moron me has been driving around, and not particularly slowly, on a flat rear tyre for 2 days. Amazing.

My rear centre light has decided it no longer wants to be part of this world and started to crack in multiple locations with the odd bit of plastic coming off into my hands. So guess I need to sort that out at some point yay for things.

Sell it and buy a MK1 MX5.

badgeruk · 25 Nov 2017 at 21:17

But I like my shiny, plus I don't want a car slower then the Picanto.

I do really like a nice MK1 though. Possibly even more than your coup.

part was £25 from BMW fitted it only took 30 mins.

I love it. Personally. Mainly for the noise/torque.

You know I can't afford it.

I am a poor soul. First paycheck in about 4 months lands tomorrow though! So maybe if you still have it in a few months.

I hit a dog with it

Felt bad for the owner since I killed his dog, so I told him I would cover the cost of the repairs.
