Yeah deffo worth it.
But...
Many of the tyres on eBay are so cheap because they have "gone off" as it were. Basically they have best before dates and after this date the main stream tyre places can't sell them.
If you can get them for 30 quid a corner delivered then go for it but anything...
What you have to remember is money will not be lost in the exhaust and little will be lost in the 182 alloys.
And 330 for a Gbox refurb?!
Whole engines + boxes go for 250 on eBay!
Sounds to me like you don't source the part very carefully!
I can understand this being the case on bumpier roads where the harders suspension may struggle to keep the tyres on the road but on smooth roads it doesn't make sense.
Are you sure it isn't psycological as you feel yourself moving in the seat more due to the increased body roll?
On a more serious note Michael...
I know you slate 1.2s but they are incredibly good fun and if you drive it correctly in the twisties (where all the fun is to be had) they are not too shabby at all.
Argh don't bail out on me now buddy!
Edde - got that immobiliser fixed - the fuses and relays (the yellow things near the fuses) just needed a clean. I am also shocked you didn't respond to my claims of being on a par with a DCi80!
Bring it on buddy.
IMO you have more chance of f**king the pope than you do beating me.
My 1.2 is a DCi80 eater as was proven today. I kid you not.
Be scared.
