yesterday i went down to wakefield (£30 in fuel round trip) to finally pick up a p/s door without any rust... the lad didn't want anything for it but i gave him £10 anyway...
todays task was cut all the inner skin out and the impact bars out the inside to save weight and then to give it a skip over with the sander so its about ready for paint....
it was after i cut everything out (using the last of my cutting discs) i realized that the clean door was in actual fact full of body filler and rust...
so i put it out the front for the scrap man, now im fucked off!!

lol, just rang vauxhall and surprisingly there's 1 door left and its £480!

How did the ceri glass go? My screen is badly scratched it drives me mad when it's sunny

Why not claim for a new screen instead of fucking about?

Because it's a corsa b haha barely worth buying a new screen for.. But for £11 it's worth a punt.

Can get a new screen fitted for 50, But my excess would be more than that

In reality it probably didn't, it doesn't have to be letter for letter in order to be recognisable as my name.
