Been with swiftcover myself a few times and then each renewal they put the prices up, so I go away for a year or so with someone else and them come back to swiftcover when they offer better prices. The insurance industry is something else  :stupid:

Stopped in at local dealers to get some corrosion measured and checked then dropped off at local Indy for 148000 service and cam belt change. It has worked out £200 less than what the dealer quoted me!

Got the car back after service and had the indicators coded as drl's. Now I want to change my led side lights to match my Osram night breakers.

Discovered my handbrake was sticking on my drive home after work, all I could smell was burnt brakes and the wheel was red hot, now need new brake pads at least

Changed my gearbox oil and replaced the lower rear bumper. Amazed at the improvement from changing the oil. Only took a few minutes no jack needed well worth it!
