Glad it was a help. Some of the PDFs are a little vague if it isn't something you do on a regular basis
What have you done to your car today?

Got it pretty muddy. Using it to travel down to Birmingham on Boxing day with the parents. Took all of about 2 seconds to think about cleaning ti before deciding against it 
Did you have to wash your mouth out after saying that?
Three times.
Details Will? What suspension kit is that?
Did my gearbox and diff oil, and had my brake pipes repaired and brake fluid flushed and replaced. Then went for a drive. Gearbox or diff (not sure which, possibly both) is a lot quieter now which is nice, gear shifts feel very slightly less notchy too.
Not sure whats next on the list to be honest. I could get rid of the Skoda now, or I could put the MX5 in for loads more work, then get rid of the Skoda... Will have to have a think.

Finally got round to the other halfs rear brakes..
Refurbed all the fronts with new discs last year but the rears had a bit of meat on and I needed a tool to wind the caliper piston in which I didn't have to hand at the time..
A year on and caught just in time
Much better.
Added bonus the handbrake doesn't stick now

Jesus those pads!
The back one, theres nothing on it!
There was just enough to stop it being metal on metal

Took Porsche for a wash. Going away now for a couple of weeks, might put the cover on.
With the Focus, someone keeps pushing my wing mirror in which is really annoying as it is parked on the kerb because if I park it on the street I get my petrol tank drilled. When it's parked on the kerb they can't physically access the underneath. So I spayed oil all over the wing mirror. I expect to find the wing mirror on the floor tomorrow.... lol

Because it's dark and cold and I don't always remember. Plus mine is the only car they do it to....
