just an update, i manages to get all the parts excluding tyres for just over £80.

a good mate of mine has kindly given me 2 tyres which has has sitting in his shed for awhile so thats a huge saving for me.

i think £80 all in for the parts is good so add that to the cost of what i got the car for and i suppose it's still a bargin

all parts will be fitted myself and i have a 10 day free retest so fingers crossed all will be good in the end  :y

Yes, I do apologise :-[ :-[ :-[ It was all that Vamps blokes fault ::) ::) ;D ;D

To the OP, that's actually not too bad as a fail sheet. Pretty much just consumable items on an Omega really :y :y
