I had tools before I moved out of my dad's place. The sod threw them away. :mad: I had used them to work on three cars I owned before I became a rep and didn't need to work on them.
Then I became a student in Lunnen and didn't need a car, went...

With a bit of sawing and welding old screwdrivers can be made into other special tools.
I at the mo have tools in the garage here, in a room and tool box in Frogland and prolly the best ones in the back of the Disco.
So in many...
Vent away, mate. We all feel for you and are amazed that you don't go further than you do.
Remain content with the fact that you are supporting your wife and not adding to her problems.
But seriously, if I were in your position I doubt I could...

Very best of luck with it.
My bloke only worked on the carb, he only swapped normal needles around, no fine tuning like you are getting and it annoyed the flip out of me the amount of "my" time he spent talking to someone on a mobile phone. (I...
Hope they do a good job for you, tell em not to lean it off too much, might look good on emissions but the Mini loves fuel.
It'll be fine, best of luck with it :)
Well, the guy is highly regarded, local and I have already briefed him that I just want a "fast road mini" not an out and out racer.
He told me this morning he would not load & fire any "parts cannon" without speaking to me first.
Starting price...

Because she's at the rolling road tuners. :banana:
May get her back in a day or two later this week and maybe she will go like a :vb-bat: out of Hell or 💩...
And as programs have explained it isn't just the financial loss of the tools, it is the loss of the business while new tools are being sourced. And insurance is no use. Barstaff need a good kicking if found.
Had a bit of a fall out with one of the lads in the yard, he took a boat battery after I said they were scrap. I put them on
a pallet & went to help someone, came back & one was missing. I had to say something cause im in charge of all the...
