Default Big thanks to Matt Baxter

Took the 3 door out today and hadn't been out long when I started to get a horrible rattle from the rear left. Popped down to see Matt Baxter (while he was working) and 5 mins later the car is on the ramp so we can look for the fault. Soon found that the left hand rear shocker bottom bolt was knackered so Matt replaced it. I know it's not a huge problem but my thanks go to Matt for sorting it out so quick....especially when he was working. After it was done Matts boss didn't even charge me a penny.....so went shopping and dropped them a box of choccy biscuits off as a thank you. If only everyone was so helpful......


Regards Stebbo

Oh and Matt.....sorry you got a ribbing by the lads about yours not being as clean as mine underneath
