Well, all 3 stud threads were striped, but before the studs came off, 2 were fully secure, and after, they wouldn't hold. Think one of the threads in the hub was shot, but showroom are doing tourque test on all 4 hubs (by my insitance) to find out. Get legal assistance with Union at work, so...

Right, well I went for a 406 HDI so I can tune her up....is Ecosse worth the while? Their product range seems mainly focused on body work. Anyway. It's currently off the road. 8 days after payin £1500 for a very nice example, I take it to a local garage cause one nut in the O/S/F hub is...

Bad news dudes. Some gyppo cant has robbed me car! It was an aestetic beast too. Guess they'll rob anything eh. Knock on effect means I've no car to do up! Maybe I'll buy another, but I'm tending toward an A6 Quattro. :) I'll prob let you all know on this tread though if it's to be...

Ah right mates, good replies! Thanks! I've only really time for the occassional posts, but I'm not plannin on going anywhere so it'll build over time anyway. Do the silver scales on the left signify star sign? If so, a bunch full of Librans has got to be the best place to get a disscussion...

Never occoured to me to swap the engine...to be honest I get about 70mpg out of him with acceptable performance for my needs. It's the handling I'd prefer to concentrate on. Every wheel shop I go to says I'll need some arch work if I want lower profiles, but the turning circle's well rubbish, so...
