yesterday i went down to wakefield (£30 in fuel round trip) to finally pick up a p/s door without any rust... the lad didn't want anything for it but i gave him £10 anyway...
todays task was cut all the inner skin out and the impact bars out the inside to save weight and then to give it a skip over with the sander so its about ready for paint....
it was after i cut everything out (using the last of my cutting discs) i realized that the clean door was in actual fact full of body filler and rust...
so i put it out the front for the scrap man, now im fucked off!! 
lol, just rang vauxhall and surprisingly there's 1 door left and its £480!

Not done anything but this amused me yesterday:

I had visions of a tiny little man replacing the bulb while I was driving.

How did the ceri glass go? My screen is badly scratched it drives me mad when it's sunny

Why not claim for a new screen instead of fucking about?

Because it's a corsa b haha barely worth buying a new screen for.. But for £11 it's worth a punt.
Can get a new screen fitted for 50, But my excess would be more than that

Had it mot'd and it passed no problems. It is a quality made vw so no surprises there.

In reality it probably didn't, it doesn't have to be letter for letter in order to be recognisable as my name.
