Default BIG UP POST - Costina & Doug

I thought this might be worth a mention due to the fact i don't know these fella's from adam Never spoke to them before until now!).

As you may know i keep running into problems tidying the front end of my car (engine, loom, bay etc). Now the latest was not being able to torque up the cam cap studs...........

Now after speaking to loads of people off here, 2 people spring to mind Costina & Doug.

Costina has been really helpful & offered me loads of advise (for which i am eternally greatful!).....

But then out of know where comes Doug.......

I've never spoken to him before EVER, then i get a rply on my resto post as follows:

Regards Doug .
After a couple of PM exchanges he says he's got a couple sitting at home doing nowt, so he'll post them down........

Then another PM from him.....

Well excuse me for going against the grain but I think Doug is a prize cock for telling me my plate could be worth silly money… Bugatti Cosarti indeed

But then I’m a prize plum for believing him

Glad all went well
