if ya can get a price it'd be handy...

might be more than Ł3.80 per LB but F1 is closer than gravesend so would save money in fuel bills

Yeah but it was 3 less I had to gap.

I was still throwing a strop after removing the car from my garage to find to 2 new scuffs to the front wing a scuff to the bumper and my number plate broken Why I bother keeping it in my garage when my family in th elast 12 months have caused more damage to it in there than thieving oiks have with it being left on my driveway
