Far as I know he's still working at eurocarcare James. I spoke to him a couple of weeks ago.
 
Well the oil leak seems to be fixed atm...

But some of you may know i have a slight prob with my gearbox ,,, it being dead :p

1st is hard to select now 2nd crunches EVERY time now... and if i get it in 2nd , 1st gear is a no no to select ,, might take some up on thecable and see if that helps .. if not , i think it will be a trip to the scrap yard to get a box and get a new clutch timeee...

That's Fiat Gearbox's for you James. I lost 3rd in the Panda, so had to rev the nuts off of it in 2nd before changing to 4th.Sourced another box eventually off fleebay, and then had big problem with the seller (Long story).

My Gearbox is very selective as to when it want's to crunch chaning up into 5th. Clutch fully in, select 5th & Crunch it's in gear.

what andi is a ruff git with his cars?

Oi ya cheeky Bugger James!!

To be fair the Panda, hadn't been run in propely when I bought it. Drove upto Knockhill with it 2days after I bought it, put my foot down and virtually no responce from the engine.

As for the Sei, where do I start with the problems I've had with it?? Expansion Tank blew, Alternator seized, Alloy wheel had hairline crack and bad weld............ NO Service history on the car when I bought it.
 
had a road trip with my mate to pick an escort up , so took a few pics before the splitter went on...
please dont ban me for parking next to a ford....

not 100% sure on the splitter tbh, just think theres maybe a bit too much black plastic going on now IMO, would work much better with a sporting/colour coded bumper and the black splitter me thinks

as it is..... it's a bit David Coulthard.....
