Re: Exhaust dilema
That's a blooming good price right there, it's a shame that one part came damaged, the courier probably used it to play warehouse baseball

Re: Discuss Saxty's Book - The Cars You Always Promised Yourself
I've got a brain picker, as with the sierra and Granada 2.0 8v i4, I was wondering why this engine was fitted with 16v pistons?? Is it a case of the rs2k engine was draughted up at the same time and it was cost cutting by ford to put the 16v pistons in the 8v variants so they aren't having 2 lots of...

Re: A garage won't give me my money back.
So do the parts exist? Realistically if they do you will need them, have some of them off the garage, reflecting what others have said the legal route may cost you more to get back a small amount

Re: Easiest engine swap for a muppet with no experience
