I've had a look at 'new' prices of calipers (about £100), where can you find refurb/exchange ones?

I've used these guys for years.

Ooh, nice. That's literally the sort of page your want to see; caliper, bleed nipples, rebuild kits, the whole shebang in one place, reasonably priced

BTW, the short shift kit is amazing, what a difference once you get used to it (which doesn't take long).

Shorter shift on the boxster is how it should have been day one.

Enjoy the new car dude.

Bonnet and old hinges off. Without the hinges in the way the bonnet doesn’t quite fit. Might be able to bend it sufficiently, we’ll see.

You should fit some quick release bonnet pins while you’re there for that full rally goodness.
How about not having a sig at all?

Had a good day washing cars and airing things out a bit. Felt properly spring like at points. Didn’t go too in depth as I’m sure there’s still some winter weather to come.

Realised I didn't have any pics of the two Alfa’s together.

Would have been rude not to try and get all the reds together

Paintwork on the compact is awful, now it’s being washed in decent light it really looks poor. Going to have to attempt some tidying once the weather properly improves. Doesn’t really need any repairs, just keying in and a blow over. Although the roof is the worst part and I have been tempted to try vinyl wrapping it. If that went well I fancy trying a whole car, just because it looks like something interesting to have a go at.
Cheers, Harry

Fitted all the parts and then new stripes to the Twingo and my daughter was off! She dropped me off at the pub then went to Tesco and whilst she was inside, someone scraped the side. One day FFS!
Unfortunately not caught on the dashcam either. The scratch will buff out, but the dent will need a dentmaster type man to fix it.

I'm so fucking annoyed :lol:

Fuming hun.
Cheers.

Amazingly, the stuff you get in those little tubes in COVID test kits is actually the perfect moss remover.

Looks great fun for a first car. I'd drive that now :D

Is it cheap to insure ?
