Garage provided me with a Mitsubishi Colt, which I only drive around in the dark!

Haha.. you only drive it around in the dark! Ha!

Shame to hear about the cylinder though.. no fun when you have to be without your Roc!

Driving the roc around a big motorway roundabout to find 3 brand new KIA's spread across the road in pieces ! 20m further and there was a car carry truck with 3 empty spaces on it
Oops not a good start to his day.

Finished my second coat of Auto Glym back dye on my honeycomb grille then gave it a good clean. Autobrite cherry glaze and project 32 have done there job in this heat.

Fitted Canbus Error Free 501 T10 194 W5W 4 LED's in my footwells.

Any chance you know what LED's to use for the number plate lights? Got any links?

Unfortunately not, yet to take any. They are nice, bright and provide a nice white glow on the floor at night. Very lovely!

Handed her over to the dealers for what i thought (and was told) would be a clutch release bearing change. Got the phonecall this afternoon... they've ordered me a new gearbox, clutch and flywheel. I'm just relieved i decided to get her looked at for every niggly squeak, squeal and rattle while she's still got some warranty left

Don't know why I bothered as back bumper is getting changed weekend and both sides and bonnet will be painted soon.
