Oh god haha! It's been well looked after bless her. I bought it off my friend who bought it off my driving instructor so I knew exactly how it'd been driven and how well it'd been looked after, made it an easy decision really

Had an absolute nightmare with the exhaust but ended up getting one fitted and absolutely love it. Video on my Instagram - JamesTaylor0708 if you wanna see :D
Had a nightmare with my lowering springs too as my wheel locking nut remover decided it didn't want to stay in the same shape, and is now rounded to the point I can't budge 1 of the 4 nuts on every wheel. Gonna have to think of something, any suggestions?

Hmm, what we did was just hammer a socket onto each nut when ours' smoothed itself down.. ruins your socket though.

Yeah looking for something a little less damaging than that haha. I'll see if I can just get the same nut remover from somewhere first

Thought each pattern was individual? Unless you can get one from a mould but that'll be ££

So how smooth is the locking socket? Whacking it with a hammer to make it "stay" wont work you reckon?

Chisel and hammer the lock nut off then get an expensive set that wont cause this problem in future

If you still have the packaging, there's a code you can tell the manufacturer to get a replacment

Haven't got the packaging because they came with the car when i bought it. Need to invest in a breaker bar or an air wrench really, that's what caused the problem
