Timing belts/tensioner/water pump (peace of mind)
New heater matrix (no more greasy glycol on inside of screen and windows beautiful and clear)
Changed out cream prrt for grey one (temp now behaves as it should rather than confused teenager)
Wheel bearing changed at last (has been on the list for a good while)
I'm in love all over again
Oh and thanks to your dad for being my personal taxi sercvice

He should get back to you though - could probably get it done at CLCM while he has it for service. Try phone or text, emails are notoriously difficult with reception at his location.

I've not been to see him in the last few days but will let him know your trying to get intouch...
That wheel bearing was a bugger for him as his 10 tonne press couldn't budge the old one, he took it elsewhere and got it sorted though, good lad always going the extra mile even if hard to get hold of at times, worth persisting

Yes he said the wheel bearing was probably the loudest he'd heard for awhile
Can also recommend "Jimmy the painter" next door to ali
I had reversed over a rock and punched a neat little hole in the bottom of the sill.....fixed and sprayed the sill ...really impressed with the quality of the job....wasn't too bothered about the finish beacause you wouldn't really notice it anyway but it's spot on......colour match to new aluminium bang on also.
