Have to own up - it was me collecting the car from Brooklyn Ford after having the clutch sorted out. Not the same level of service as before sorry to say took them 5 days to change it, now some of the electrics dont work !!!, and they lost the rubber seal that goes across the bulkhead from left to right .

thanks for that.......i'm not a CHAV!!!!

Paradas are good in the dry IMO,i'm sure there is much better out there,but they are cheap enough to abuse,and work pretty well in my experience.

Suspicious or not its enough to pi** me off, I have complained to them, but still waiting for a reply. They also broke the plastic cover that goes over the heater blower, when trying to replace the blower !!.
