Yea mate its nice to working on with no deadline to get it back on the road ! Like with the suspension i removed i dont know how im alive haha
Its in a locked garage and the car is locked in there my area is quiet too
Basically my insurance is up so instead of insuring the car straight away thought id replace all the tired components on my car cus i know if its running on the road i wont get these things done !
So today i purchased a new blue point trolley jack and a decent rathchet set and got to work ...
I know this isnt clio related . But my trolley jack has given up it just goes down underload . Thinking the seals have gone . Anyone know if it could get repaired ?
Any of you guys know any good tips
On how to get your insurance down?
Cheapest i got is
2,045 with nfu who i hve been with for 3 years since i started driving .
