Change discs and pads for the new brembo's recently purchased from eBay with the money saving offer. Then found rear drivers side calliper Seized so also had to replace that.
After that realised the car needed a clean so as was nice weather did that too

Re: What have you done today?
Spent money I shouldnt have .....on myself 2 days before Christmas !
I was in Tesco killing time when I ended up near the photo shop, looking at the canvas's and poster pictures. I skimmed through my phone and found this picture, foolishly uploaded it to 30" x 20" on their big screen and before I knew it I'd parted with the best part of £30 for a huge framed poster !!!
Still, as the Alpina is stored elsewhere for the moment, it will look great on the garage wall
Just better hide it till after Xmas in case theyve bought me anything similar !!!

Re: What have you done today?
Spent some of today rolling around on the floor carrying out an interim oil& filter change on mrs smartbears Mini Cooper-it's recently had a new vanos solonoid fitted under mini warranty and has been running rough ever since.
Purged the vanos system of air & it runs like a train again
