I dunno what Alan would say but why dont we all go round Alans, me and poison_uk and then we can work on your car or mine or both?

I think it might be good ?

Really? I thought he lived in Durham?!

Oh well, Ill drive to his and you can too :P

Got a new back box yestarday and fitted it as my old one, well it was so badly rusted it had came away from the pipe and I was running about without one.

So I got a new one from NPA Ltd for Ã,£33. Quik-Fit told me Ã,£53!

I did get one from a 1.1 106 from a scrappy for Ã,£10 but it had a different bore, I thought they might be all the same.

Front Brakes are going to get done tonight!

mr_roll

Oh and I also got a bit of tubing from The Peugeot Clinic over gateshead for free and that is now my vacum tube. As the one me and Alan bodged wasnt really working to well.

ozee

They came with them on, my plan at the moment is to get them in a few months

Poison_UK

Ã,£35 per steelie brand new, from near enough any pug garage... Then Ã,£35 per tyre =s a lot of money for brand new set :D

Mark

get them from somewhere that does alloy wheels - ppl often discard the steel rims there and then - if theyre 4 stud, they will be the same as 306, zx, xsara, etc etc - i wouldnt pay more than Ã,£5 each for them
