Haha go with just the right amount of cash so you cant buy extras! lol.
I had it on 60mm B springs when i first got it, so the FK's were a dream, but i paid £240 second hand and one front one was leaking a few days after i put them on

On the 1.4 it's going to be £550 22 4 years no claims but at the moment it's like £900 as I had my 06 mini cooper s insured which was £800 fully comp then when I changed to this they wanted another £75
But my quotes else were are around the £550 mark wasn't much more for the 1.8 either

See its postcode that fucks me up. £800, yet at my sisters 1 mile away (different postcode) it would be £620
Not bad really, your a year younger, but have 2 years more no claims.
A 1.8 isnt much more no, but is alot more to tax too.
Think seen as im saving for a house after xmas one of these will be on the cards

Bit of an update, got the eibach spring's fitted & there all settled now  for got how good they are. Will get some decent pic's up soon when it's clean
Made a bit of a amatuer mistake the other day and nearly snapped my only key ;-( rang vauxhal and they want £135!!!! for a new key. So ebay £6 later and hey presto it's sorted
Have noticed some think though, have been wondering what looked wrong on my car and now realised it's the SRI badges. It doesn't have any on the door's think I'm going to get them as it doesn't look right with out them, but there £30 for 2 typical vauxhall

Headlight Help - I seem to have a glue substance from some think that's been on there. They look grubby even when cleaned and you can feel the glue on the lens. So best way of removing this?? Place near me said they can polish them for £20 each before i do this any recommendations?
