Always difficult to part with a giant turd
Highly polished didnt help either.

Just had someone force me into cones on the motorway. Overtaking me on the M6 in 50 average limit, just pulled over into me and my lane. Swerved to avoid as couldn’t brake with a lorry up my backside.
Damage to front bumper, bonnet and left side of the car.
Car didn’t stop, police called and they’re going to respond.
Still got 4 hours of my journey back from Scotland to go. Fuming with the guy - he made no effort to stop at all, completely oblivious.
It was your wife yesterday?
Who was driving. But I assume you meant her anyway. Any pics of the damage?Huh?

Didn’t think anyone would be pedantic enough to pick it apart
You've been posting on here far too long to make silly assumptions like that![]()
AC diagnostic as 3 months after getting the high pressure hose replaced I've started to lose AC again indicating another fault. Went to Hawke Motosport in Romsey who specialise in AC among other things and he found the low pressure hose itself has a micro crack(s) where it rubs against the heat shield and only the nitrogen test indicated to that. Knew I should have got both hoses at the same time months ago lol.
Used AC leak stop for now so I have working AC until the inspection 2 is booked in for a couple months time and I get the new hose ordered ready for the service.
So all in all over the last 24 months:
- New hedgehog
- New AC compressor + expansion valve + evaporator + drier
- New condenser
- New high pressure hose
- New low pressure hose
What's next bingo card still being populated....
Forgot to follow up on this, brackets were made and fitted; Not in the photo but I refitted them to the housings with some Tigerseal which should lessen the vibrations. The have been installed and I've racked up around 150 miles of spirted driving around country B roads and all seems to have stayed in place!Spent an hour figuring out how I'm going to repair a headlight housing on the Elise (broken mounting brackets) as it seems replacements if you can get them are now £800 upwards. Seems to be a common issue that can be fixed with some metal brackets and a little epoxy adhesive or sikaflex, so that's my task for tomorrow.
