Michael P Posted October 20, 2010 Author Share Posted October 20, 2010 I drove a Kia for 6 months!! The MX-5 is a 1.8, with my !yr NCB it'll be £1600 which is the same as i paid for the Fiesta last year. Not sure whats happening with the Fiesta, my Dad seems to have plans of some sort! I'm a very happy bunny. One of the brake calipers needs replacing but thats it! And Miles came to a Ford meet in a Peugeot, i can come in a MX-5!!!

Michael P Posted October 20, 2010 Author Share Posted October 20, 2010 it's a front caliper actually. it was typical don't-take-your-car-to-kwik-fit happenings, so it's their fault! but it's going to be sorted soon :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
