True about the tractor fuel, had to think of economy whilst pulling the caravan, if it was up to me I would have a 3.2 elite but they seem to be like rocking horse sh*t down here is sunny south wales

Yes mate, they are 18s, I was looking for the ones you have, I took the car out last night, some idiot came at me going over speed ramps, I had to swerve and hit the kerb, I am off up to Manchester to a wheel specialist on Saturdaty to have it streightened.

i also pull a caravan with the oil burner but have graystons spring assisiters on {donuts} and it can still sit low depending if i have bikes on back, i would not lower the springs or you will probably leave some metal part on top of a site speed bump :'(

She is only a 2.2 DTI GLS, but i have won several rosettes, I enter the autoglym shine compertitions, I have also put extras on her, once the wheels go I am going to have a go at the calipers and discs before the new wheels go on.

Some people may think I go overboard, even the door hinges are waxed, I even get the tooth brush on the lights to remove dried wax out of the stamped writing on the lenses.

So be it, it is a big hobby of mine, some people enjoy fishing and mechanics, my vice is car cleaning etc, there is a LOT of satisfaction when you stand back and look at the finished car, albeit it dont last long on black.
