How come it's so easy to spend silly amounts on a car knowing you;ll never get it back but you know it feels right :lol:

After the chassis rebuild on our TF we realised when putting the car back together that 3 of our 4 16 spoke wheels were buckled, the front tyres were badly worn (stepped almost) on the inside edge and the rear tyres were the wrong profile and speed rating what did we do......

.....replace everything with a brand new tyre and wheel pack from team dynamics. I recon we've just doubled the value of the car :lol:

Please define :-

Normal?????

After let's face what a sitting MP considers nomal behaviour most ordinary people would consider very odd indeed. Another way of looking at you exspediture on your car is to consider and compare the servicing cost of many run of the mill fleet type vehicles and I bet the cost of a major service is probably more than your wheels and tyre package :P .

As an exampl e we had a 93 Jeep Cherokee some years back and when int eh dealership picking up a couple f Jeep only bits I perused the servicing price list and the 96,000 service even back then was priced at just shy of a grand :omg: in fact it was about £40 shy of what we paid for out Cherokee :-?
