October/November
Month started of greatly! Booked it into bodyshop to have a smooth rear bumper and smoothed sides!
Pictures to follow!
Then turned badly!- car had been making a few strange noises, so decided as precaution to get it serviced and have a cambelt change! (just incase)
The day before the cambelt change............. the cambelt snapped! Gutted!
8 valves gone!- its in garage at the moment and im on abit of a spending spree while its there!
Currently buying
Front bumper of someone of here!
Steinmetz sideskirts
Cobra Monaco Bucket Seats- Limited edition black suede!
Smoothed Petrol Cap
And going to see davey jack monday to have a mantzel inlet fitted!
