Havn't touched it for a week and had to move it today and discovered the front nearside tyre was flat.  :(

Pumped it up and thought about sticking it on ebay........  :-\
You won't get much for a front near side tyre on eBay, I'm afraid, pumped up or not.

Off side are, I believe, fetching better prices. :y

The Goldway 2000's are a rare and quite sought after brand I believe.  ;)

Just fitted an "Eternal" full exhaust system to my PFL (1999) 2.5 Elite. Went on really well and for the price it is a steal.

Took it to the tyre shop to get the puncture fixed, but it was leaking from the inside bead.  Tyre off, all cleaned up and all is good.  Hopefully!  :y

How about getting my rim cleaned up so the rubber fits properly?  :)

For 3rd year running on booking Phaeton in for mot I am told that brakes and discs on front need changing -  no light on and no braking problems so said to put it through. Passed again at 70000 miles on original pads etc. Big bill when it eventually comes though
