Re: handbreak

spot on mate, did this 2 days ago to get through the mot. its pretty easy but need to get the car up on some ramps to get access. takes 20-30mins from start to finish, just check which direction it is to tighten before you drop the car back down.

Re: Paid to drive MR2, good news?

So far with all your guys comments i think depend on figures etcetc i might get something like a Yaris for work and keep the mr2 using a two car policy. if thats not a option the mr2 is going off the road and running a yaris all the same! im trying to keep the mr2 if i can!
