Hey cuz, this supplier works really well for the part of the world that we are in. You might want to have a look at FCP EURO for your future use. Orders ship in one or two days, great value postage and on the right side of the detch arrive in a week and a half. As a returning customer (with some big heavy orders) I get a huge postage discount. Check them out bro.

You need to square that rear wiper off Andy!!
For me ... got puncture. Got home to hear a hissing noise, and something stuck in the tread. Quick scramble to get the sill jack out to stop the car dropping to the floor on the dead tyre and a block of wood under the subframe and she'll hold until tonight when I can get the wheel up to the garage. Its a good job I don't need the car today! James |

It must be puncture season. I've been using the C70 for a few days as 'er indoors Fiesta has expired. 18 years old and 180,000mls. Had it from 6 months old and 1400mls, so doesn't owe us anything. Just bought a '07 Mini Cooper to replace it, picking it up on Monday when the tax starts, hence using the C70. Anyway went to the garage yesterday and a flat front tyre. left it until I got home in the evening and put 'er indoors on the train for work and used the V40 myself.
Culprit was a small nail in the tread, took it to my tyre chappie this morning and had it repaired, drove back to work and then went out to the car at lunchtime and the same tyre was flat again, back to the tyre chappie, first repair still good, but another puncture about 50mm away from the repair. Both now repaired and all good.
