Default Lithuanian Spare Parts anyone?

Parcel arrived from these fellas:
https://rrr.lt/en

Lithuanian company that sells S/H Rover spares - if you order several items at once then the postage rates and prices become very, very reasonable. Cheaper than ebay

I have to say, that suspension arm was fairly comprehensively clapped

Don't be silly, that wasn't MOT'd last year, it was MOT'd sixty days ago, without even a mention from the examiner

The arm looked perfectly fine yesterday morning apart from a small crack which had appeared, however when treating the outboard bolt to a couple of good hard clumps with a mash hammer prior to unbolting it, the arm disintegrated into a pile of Fe3O4 on the deck.

Absolutely amazing really

Looks rather like the arm that Andy took off mine recently but unfortunately it gave way on the road.
