Water pump went about 1 and a half weeks ago, its been sitting in my garage ever since  However, its all been repaired, i saved myself £25 on the parts, and its all been fixed.
Its been horrible not driving her for over a week
Still, brakes are bedding in, new pumps fine, and counting down those days to Trax

Same brakes, new pads, I got some greenstuff pads fro christmas, was saving em for the funky brakes i was gonna get at the start of the year (star shaped discs), but now there publically advertised, and no good for track days, so put em on the car now for trax

worst i had was the bodyshop, 6-7 months, and they done a sh1te job too
New jobs working in Ted Baker clothes shop. REtail sucks, the hours suck, the management has no idea on how to run a business and good staff relations.
In general, i dont like it Management changed my hours without telling me this week. I turned up to be told i should be in later. So i kinda said im not coming in later, not my fault u've changed my hours without telling me, if i can't work now, im not coming in again today
So i came home and got a day off

Old one looks like it just has corroded away. Sitting on my garage floor at the mo Looks like its been exposed to seawater (obviously it hasn't), but thats the effect the metal has.
