Cheers mate, I'm changing jobs so going from an offshore role to onshore so taking a pay cut and won't be able to afford to run it. Also, won't have time to use it either so needs must.
Done a buy this morning by buying the brand new TD 1.2 and brand new Nankang AR-1 which @Hyperhatch had for sale in the "Car Parts For Sale" section :love:
Car has now been aligned with shims from PMS used to rear to set alignment, and spacers on front have been swapped from 16mm to 10mm.

Looking at some engine prevention work, and looking into doing the valves & springs.
Can you recommend what to go for and who to do the work?
I'd probably look into doing the rod bolts as a precaution aswell I.e. ARP bolts.
