I remember taking a double look at the fuel gauge on the valver I brought for spares, couldn't believe how little fuel I'd used for such a "spirited" drive. I really enjoyed driving it, I'd definately concider one as a daily.

I'm not sure to be honest, I think they're not too hard.
My bumpers missing the proper attachment to it's just bolts that hold it on but the standard way is some metal clasp thyp thing Razz

Well this one poorly rado Sad Was driving home from work last week and the oil and water temp went through the roof. Got home and checked to find mayo in the oil.
Initially thought it was the head gasket gone but compression tested and all cylinders were fine.
Seems like the standard oil cooler has given up, not surprised really as these as crap.
A quick call the gods at G Werks and I know have a shiney Mocal cooler on it's way, pics to follow when I get round to fitting it.
