Took it to garage to have the bearings checked as it sounds like they r going only to find out 3 of my tyres are shaped like a 50pence coin (cheapskate previous owner).

Looked online for some new tyres but still can't decide.

Fitted my "m25ring" sticker.

Gave it a wash, wax, rubdown (black but worth it).
Like a mirror it's so clean :D

Just had the cambelt and waterpump done today by an independent in Blackpool. Also, whilst the coolant was drained, they fitted the temperature sender unit I supplied, so it's nice to know the temperature guage now works.

No idea of the previous history of the car, so hadn't a clue how long the timing belt had been in -- for all I know it might never have had one, and it's 02 plate with 77k on the clock. Feeling a LOT happier knowing it's been done, anyway.

Not a bad price of £250 all in!
