Right... 830 this morning i get up, plamn what to do for today, i phone renault at 9, and asked them for i quote "the tripod on the end of the passenger side driveshaft that fits into the diff", "ok sir yes we have on in stock 33.90 inc vat", ok i have to get my dad to drive me the 30 odd miles to dealership, only to find out he has got the boot and not the actual joint, then they dont actually has the joint in stock either!so a wasted journey.
when i got home i decided to get the engine hoist out and try and put my engine in, when ive got the hoist out and just lifting the engine out of the boot of my car it starts pissing it down!when it finally stopped raining, i looked at the rear mount and realised its broken!!!!
argh!!! hope tomorrow isnt as bad as this! |

its 60 odd quid as well not 30 odd so they were probably looking at the wrong bit.
30 odd for the boot sounds right if you ain;t trade though! |

could just see this wall of invisibility heading towards us, literally like driving towards a white painted wall....hail it was...and it just turned on instantly and fucking ferociously! instantly couldnt see a thing...excpet for all the cars around me hitting the brakes....everyone just more or less stopped as couldnt see feck all!!
