Should I buy a Rav4 ?

I still like the fact you garage appears to be called 'Head Gasket Failure'...

OK he can't do it at the same time as the thunderbird as he cant get hold of a trailer in time, but £135 for him to do it another time

Go on then, email me your bank details - modernheroescars at gmail dot com and we’ll get it done

Glad it got there ok if the other set of number plates turn up I will send them on.

Have driven it back and forward from the unit to home a few times and it’s absolutely superb. Needs a rear wheel bearing but they’re £20 a side so I’ll be replacing both next week!

I’ll also be replacing the ‘99 dated spare tyre - who thought a tailgate mounted spare was a good idea?

[Kiltox]

Bonus find was the touch up paint in one of the rear cubby holes - I’ll be giving that a go on the rear quarter!

That's weird about the wheel bearing as they were fine at the mot and when I last drove it. I expect it was probably the shock the poor thing had of being driven so far in one day when it was delivered. It hasn't been used much in the last few years. The spare is not the best it really wanted one of those full covers on it but does show the effects of sunlight on tyres pretty well though. The other set of number plates have arrived no so I will send them on if you want them.

Are you going to have a go at the grey plastics as it would be interesting to see how they come up with some proper cleaning.

Definitely. I usually just slap whatever bumper treatment I can find on but I might do a bit of a group test given they’re so bad all round
