Well today and yesterday I have replaced the left hand side ball joint and wish bone. Now all I need to do is sort the central locking out so I can get some petrol to take it to the garage and have them change the fly wheel, still it was nice to hear the roar again :)

Well I have an update about my VR, the gear box is back after being stripped and no fault was found what so ever, I have just spoken to the garage and they have ordered a new gear box mount, a new genuine clutch and a clutch release arm, and they are going to replace the cv boot kit too. So if all that gets done and it still does it I will probably shoot myself, but if the parts arrive It does mean I will have it for billing, so fingers crossed dudes and dudettes :)

Well here is an update for you all, I have had the car back about week or so now and it cost me £150 in the end, that was for a gear box strip and rebuild, a genuine clutch, new gearbox mount, clutch arm all fitted, but there was a lot of shouting and stuff but after them having my car for 10 weeks and all through the summer they deserved it. But being up and down on a ramp the bushes went in the drivers side wishbone. So I replaced the wish bone ball joint anti roll bar linkage and the outer cv boot kit yesterday all by myself, easy to some but I was happy. It had a full service with new leads aswell, and the tracking done. I have also replaced the front splitter for a new black one and a standard grill instead of the eyebrow. So I will say this very quitely but it is running like a dream at the moment touch wood fingers crossed. so to bore you all the end. :)
