Got my aircon working properly thanks to Colin Robson for organising a group gas recharge this evening, nice to meet some fellow owners too...

Yesterday I cured the rear parking sensor fault...turned out to be a faulty sensor ( the last one I changed!)....normal service is resumed

I didn't get to say how nice your car looked either. it is one of my favourite colours. mark twos do look better by the way

did a foam swap...... from a standard passenger seat into a drivers full leather sports seat, a bit of a repair, fitted replacement switch and now have a pretty good condition drivers seat to be fitted in the morning

Snap! (Poor choice of wording!)

Got mine done today. Took me longer to jack it up and take the wheels off than it did to do the job! Peace of mind after seeing the front tyre on my daughter's Mondeo after the spring snapped, pulling out of a junction.

Nice one Roverbarmy.

Thay's the next 4 oil changes covered.

Had fitted a new exhaust centre and back box. Wasn't blowing but was looking worse for wear and the outer skin was all corroded and looked a mess when viewed from behind.

New air cleaner fitted. Can't believe how grubby it was after only 12mths & 7k miles, wouldn't like to leave it for the recommended 24mths or 30k.

My tyre protectors arrived.

Fitted boot net, checked plenum which was bone dry and ordered some tyre protectors from rimmers

Fitted new rear springs to the ZTT wasn't too difficult really and was done on my own. I had a look at the how to on here and followed it slightly but made my own path I the end. But not once I needed a crowbar or any other lever just a big pull to get them in. Next thing is the front shock tomorrow not looking forward to that.
