Quite impressed with the Gliptone, and didnt smell as much as I expected  :D

Gits at the garage turned me away for a retest as they were too busy, booked in for Thursday.  So much for me using them to make life easier.  Never again.

Think I'll try Nigel Langs in Bolton for the alignment now, and get it done properly.  They can do the subframe bushes too  :y

My thoughts exactly  :y

Been a long time coming, more than ready to start enjoying her  :y

Will be sad to see the old one go all the same, I don't chop and change cars, this is only my 5th in about 15 years!
