Fitted new top mount bearings to get rid of the annoying little twanging spring like noise I was getting when pulling away slowly and turning. Now sorted
Also adjusted my front coilovers as the passenger side was sitting 10mm higher than the drivers side.

Left mine under the snow this morning and took the missus's car to work instead ;)

Having new wishbones fitted, then the tracking done, then getting the 4 new tyres fitted, might not all be today we'll see.

You'd be better getting the tracking done after the new tyres are on Lee? Unless your current tyres still have a decent amount of tread left. Or you need to drive 200 miles to the garage for the tracking ;)

No I was meaning get the new tyres on first then do the tracking - unless your garage was going to be 200 miles away and you didn't want to risk damaging the new tyres driving there :)

If the fronts are still okayish then at least you could still drive on the old ones with the tracking out until you get the tyres swapped, then get 'er tracked.

Came home to find one of the mums or dads on the school run had hit my rear bumper on the corner while pulling out from behind mine and just drove off. Went and had a word with the head of school and told her its about the 3rd time this has happened. She came and looked at it and said the school will pay for the damage. Took it to a body shop who told me for cash it will be £180 or with an invoice it's £220. Can't see the school wanting to pay that much.
