firstly i put my car in a hedge,
trying to fix the panel damage slit my finger open n had stitches,
then changed the ball joint and then later on the driveshaft popped out,
then fitted v6 calipers pads and discs and they were catching my wheel (sorted tonight),
then tonight on the way home (boom) cv joint desintigrated and now ive left my car parked on a random farm
its enough to put me off corsa's now
