Picked Up A New Car Last Night

[ur.a.bus]

pic's are not the best as i can't be bothered hanging about (just want it in the garage to start the cleaning )

had my green uk turbo 3 years and decided it was time for a change.

picked this up last night,

other toy,

i'm more of a "lurker" on this site, usually popping on every other day to read posts and learn lots of handy tips.

todays jobs are, the squeaky seat belt fix (cutting the tabs thing as both my fronts are driving me mad), detango (just got the new bulbs ), then a good clean.

next jobs will be getting any stone chips sorted, windows tinted, zunsports black grills and mudflaps.

just got to get used to that extra gear now

Good looking car.

Also like the look of the Jeep looks a bit 'modded'.

yes when i went to see the car i thought they'd just need a bit of oil, was searching Strictly Technical last night just going through the pages and came across a post about how it fix it (can't find it today). Basically the belt is rubbing off the trim inside when you pull the belt out, take the trim off, has 1 popper at the rear and just pulls off. inside the trim you will see where the belt is rubbing, there are 3 strengthening tabs which run across the trim, i cut the top 2 down flush and put it all back together, no squeaks

easy jobs takes about 15min per side
