    Tell you what frankie, you can't trust me, so return all of the parts and you can have your £300 back. Just let me know when it is ready to be collected. I wanted to do this amicably, but obviously you didn't.

    As I stated before there was nothing wrong with those parts and my car wasn't making.any noises..

    If you want to keep the parts and sell them on it is your choice.
    V40 2.0T Sport Lux Titanium grey,(03) 133k,standard
    Yamaha R1 5VY,(06) 180bhp/165whp,100nm
