around £300 in east ayrshire preferably. any suggestions?

also a mate of mine wonders if a driving without insurance charge is likely to increase my future premiums?

Seized by the police for driving without insurance before getting remoulds to replace the bald tyres maybe?

You'd be cheaper just replacing the wiper blades mate.

I've got a sit on lawnmower Billybob you could have for a couple of hundred. Mind you the turbo's gone down and it needs an MOT.

unfortunately not. the rear suspension collapsed when i went over a hump back bridge too fast last week and i skidded sideaways into a ditch. it would not be economical to repair and i need to get myself another fast runaround. i might have seen one though. i will post photos if i get it.

it did but there was something loose or rusted at the back that gave way when it hit the road at about 45-50 mph and i lost the rear end and despite giving it opposite lock it was uncontrollable and slewed into a ditch where the drivers side front wheel collapsed under the car. it was quite a shock and i hurt my elbow.

Are you certain it was your elbow?

If you really believe that was misfortune then no.
If you think jumping over a hump back bridge at 50 mph might have been just a tiny bit stupid maybe a wee reminder may help you to be less misfortunate in future.
