Yeh, it's getting quite embarrassing now - especially when pulling into the work car park.
Interesting you mention the exhaust mount, I replaced one on the weekend and one of the screws was missing it's head, must've sheered off somewhere in the past! Not sure how to attack that one tbh, could...
At first I thought it was something suspension/wheel related, but I've heard a small constant squeak whenever I go over a bump or rough bit of road, getting very annoying now!

I'm not sure what I should be replacing with and have heard that getting uprated ones will require crossovers/something like that to stop them blowing? Can anyone shed any more light...

Poor lad doesn't seem to be getting much interest, I presume it's not of much interest to most people, but if someone wanted a project he needs the space. I think he'd probs accept £800 too!
