Took the bumper off and whilst there took the seized bolts out of the security plate to replace with SS, now it's off is it worth putting it back considering the problem of the bonnet cable jamming/snapping. Obviously there is the security bit to take into account but I suspect a few have junked it?

If Yobyonk & his mates can spot an MG with the security plate missing & are bright enough to equate that with being able to get under the bonnet, then they are welcome to the spare wheel, jack & wheel brace. I travel with a reinflation kit so they can have that also. If I were to observe such an exhibition of advanced intellect I would probably buy them a little bag of cannabis each & tell them that if they could work that problem out they would in all probability be able to get a job & earn enough to buy there own illegitimate pot legitimately.

so long as they dont drink the battery acid or brake fluid,

I used to know someone who was addicted to brake fluid. He led a normal life and claimed he could stop at any time.

I suspect you & I would get on very well, our humour ratio appears to be 1 to 1.

I think my question has been well and truly answered thank you, any idea what reduction I can expect on the 0 to 60 time with the weight saving?:-?

PS As you gentlemen seem qualified why is it coke is sold in grams and cannabis in fractions of an ounce (allegedly) must be a bugger lugging 2 sets of scales around

1st. You can expect @ 0.00358 of a nanosecond off your 0 to 60 time, so we’ll worth the effort!

And 2nd. A digital set of scales that can change from metric to imperial measurement at the press of a button is essential kit to the modern purveyor of illicit substances. The well dressed scumbag around town would never leave home without one!

Yes the difference is between white coke and black coke………you’re thinking of the evil nasty bad black coke, not the good clean wholesome white stuff!

Ah, thank you, I was aware of cherry coke & thought 7up was white coke, obviously I’m too divorced from the ways of modern youth to fully comprehend these subtleties

Only in the finest crack houses, in lesser dens they pour it straight from the bottle

Pleased to be able to enlighten you to the mysterious ways of today’s youth culture………..youth culture? Surely a contradiction of terms!
