after have a new steering rack fitted at a garage i thought all would be well and good.... well i took it out today and half way down the road my steering wheel started spinning at 30mph. i went up the curb down the curb and managed to stop in the middle of the road. now that sounds scary but the really scary thing is if this was a normal monday i would have been on the m1 all because the collum was'nt fixed on right!!!
just lucky there was no one on the path or coming the other way! now im off to lay down.

Unbelievable, glad you're alive to tell the tale! I'm no lawyer, but this sounds like negligence.

Whilst trying anything to get the car to Duxford I thought it had a minor problem so it went to a local garrage.To cut a long sory short £650 later after Duxford it came back.I had to take it for a decent blast,so during a late evening along Bittons greatest car park (empty) doing a loss of licence check I decided that was enough and went to slow down to NSL.F no brakes until pumped.But all ok now,Today is my birthday but I think, wrong place wrong time I would still be 35
