Ginge, i'm with u all the way - but it's a supply and demmand thing isn't it - u pay for one off's, and the time it takes someone to develop it.

One of the reasons i have the s2 though, is it's so cheap to run. Remember the other day, u said that 3 years is the avetage life of a bearing? I thought - bollocks, mine have lasted me double that!

Anyway, this morning my back one suddenly started to drone Went to Unipart, got a new bearing kit for £6.19. Installed in 20 mins - job done, cheap motoring .
