Exclamation Check for this next time you are underneath you motor !

Had my car up on the ramp this morning for an Inspection prior to a new Geo. This 8mm bolt in the triangular bracing was sheared. This fault will not apply to a lot of you as it is a very rare occurence, usually associated with drivers looking for sub 8 minute laps of the Ring, and spirited driving at all other times !












I am neither of the above !!!

Gee your so full of it Duncan, a 'sub 8 min' trip to the karzi would be nothing short of a miracle for you!
