    How long does it take to fit...??

    3 hours is about right - if you take it in at lunch time and the mechanic is also manning reception!

    Seat belt pulled too hard!

    Give it a good wiggle and hope for the best. I've dismantled seatbelts in the past and there's not a great deal to it. You have little to lose by giving it a go. Just watch out for the metal strip that is likely to unwind and hit you in the face. A replacement from a breaker won't be much.

    TalkTalk broke?

    I'm with them and it's working fine. Unlucky.

    Which cloth / product combo to use on interior plastics?

    I just use an all purpose cleaner on a sponge and wipe down with a rag.

    Removing splashed paint

    Seems odd that they have taken the cars somewhere to sort it and had no luck, and asked if you knew of anything suitable - as if to say the place they took them had no idea about cleaning cars. Perhaps have a local valeting/detailing company come over for a look to quote, and then invoice the...

    When do you stop spending money?

    If you buy the right bits (used) you effectively could spend thousands and only lose maybe hundreds by selling them again when you move on. Think of it as renting upgrades.

    Wheel hub removal problems

    My choice would have been a used hub and carrier for £20, and had a new bearing pressed in and then just swapped the unit over.

    am I losing the plot?

    I had similar once. Got to the stage where the car would lock and unlock whilst driving - sometimes constantly . And if you happened to be near the car when it had been previously locked, you'd sometimes hear it lock and unlock on it's own. In my case it was the boot solenoid playing up...

    Where does tha' look for motors?

    Gumtree has no more wasters than your average forum IMO. If you can tie your own shoelaces and have common sense you can buy a car advertised on Gumtree successfully. It's just an advertising platform at the end of the day.

    engine removal guide?? anyone know of any?

    If the chap is still outside scratching his head from posting the request over a year ago, he should find that very helpful.

    Latest addition ITB'd Trophy

    Looks to be in very good condition. Agreed on the number plates not being to everyone's taste, and although only a £15/10 minute change, the very first thing I'd be doing is changing those hoses in the engine bay for black. I just personally dislike it when they stand out that much.

    IOS 8

    Here's a query for you guys: What usually causes iPhones to crash whilst browsing Safari? I get it occasionally on my 5S and had it on my 4S previously. I've become used to it. You'll be flicking through a thread on a forum or a web page and suddenly it will throw you out. When you reopen...

    Alternatives to broken back box

    I had the same issue and bought a backbox from ECP for about £30. You could tell it was a cheap pattern part as the fit wasn't ideal - mostly due to the box being much taller and fouling the heat shield and that it sounded a bit crap. It got me out of a hole though when the OE one actually fell off.

    IOS 8

    See, the ability to copy and paste which I use umpteen times a day, is much more of a concern from a usability point of view, than to purely upgrade for the sake of it. I shall stick to what I know. Thanks for the feedback.
