3 - the only redeeming feature of driving a diesel is that you don't have to breathe in the pollution it kicks out - leave that for the people behind you. (Just had to give the 1 year old an inhaler because she is showing signs of childhood asthma  :( )
4 - diesel still stinks

Cant do a bloody thing. Ive assembled all the bitz to refurb the front suspension apart from the top mount bearings. Ordered them from ATP Germany nearly a fortnight ago, but no sign of them.
I emailed them on Tuesday. They apologised for the delay and said they would be dispatched within 48 hours !  ::)
So much for the fabled German efficiency.   ::)

They're fekkers for not updating with tracking numbers if you buy direct rather than ebay, but normally arrive within a week... normally dhl or dpd ;)
