They cant get the stud axle tho so going to call the stealers now to see if they can. Thanks for the offer D-Pete. Will let you know if I do, after i've been on holiday and its been fix I will take a trip to D&G to see what they say so might need it (if you stil have it by then) And to rube salt into my wounds today. I managed to get my foot caught under the accelerator pedal and unclip the throttle cabel :censored: I couldnt get at it to fix it as I was at work so had to phone the RAC, 40 mins later was all fixed :censored: God these cars are just like women :lol:
  8. Nice one I will give that go next time it happens :D
  9. I like the second pic, and the third one dont like the first one tho sorry :gag:
  10. Also I would like to appologise for the swearing in my first post, needless to say I was rather anoyed 8)
  11. is that a fail for the damage or for missing the cat????
  12. Ya sounds fine will send you a pm
  13. :clap: :) If you still need thos lines we could arrange something No i didnt get it, I wish I did tho :censored:
  14. Ya it could of been alot worst. the car is all right to drive but there is a bad rumbel at about 40mph and when I'm driving realy slow 10 or so mph I can hear a high pitch noise. its not constant and is only when the wheel reaches a certain point in the rotation. Will be taking it to the garage tomoro to see whats wrong. I had the wheel off and the caliper earlyer and couldnt see much wrong with it behind, but I'm no expert :( if the rear beam is damaged how much would that set me back?
  15. Here is the wheel I cant get a decent pic of the wheel showing the angel its on F**King cats :bad-words:
  16. I wish I did now, but it was an instant reaction
  17. I just f**ked the left rear wheel up trying to miss a cat. :censored: :( Doing about 45mph cat ran out in front of me and I braked and swearved to miss it, wet roads and back end steped out and the rear wheel slammed into the kurb. The rims is shafted, bearing is rumbling, and disc is distorted. The camber is out too, the wheel is leaning over itself. Had the wheel off and the suspension seams ok, there is a dent in the back box where the two must of conected, but it looks straight. Wha els could I have F**ked up? :( I wish I just flattend the F**King thing :censored: :censored: :censored: :censored: :bad-words: :bad-words: :bad-words: :( :( :( :( :(
