Swapped my alloys from 17" to 16". I often go to the neighbour Ukraine to fill up my tanks and several times met some really deep potholes over there.

Not my car exactly, more some of my customers! :y
This week has seen me :-

Finishing off the conversion of a '98 automatic Renault Scenic into a manual vehicle to fix auto box and headgasket faults.
Fixing a misfire and inlet leak on a '99 1.6 Corsa.
Take a year 2000 Lancer estate for M.O.T.
A clutch change on an '05 Kia Sportage diesel.
Diagnose non-starting on an old Escort van.

Quite a busy week really so it looks like things are finally picking up after the Christmas lull...
