Default Donnington Spares day......

What did you buy?

What was it like...?


I was busy doing a bit to my car after the trip away so never went.

Got J.C to buy me long wheels studs,nuts,and a 2wd heat sheild.

Think that is all i needed.

Was meant in jest as I showed a mate a video of you flicking the car left then going properly sideways round a right hander and my mate thinks you drive like a nutter. I disagree as you drive like an animal
