After you said R11000 is the usual rate these days and they are becoming scarce I said flock it I'm gonna buy one at the import shop then I don't have to pay courier cost as my brother is coming down again after his training is done. But this baby is getting a complete overhaul as I don't want any issues afterwards en must last a minimum of 3 years without any problems. _________________ Hers:Opel Corsa Chill 1.3  His: Are you kidding me????

i hope you tried negotiating a bit?? saw one of the engine spare shops advertising for R13500  really getting expensive these days. one question though, why didn't you opt for ecotec? alot cheaper than XE and they are proving themselves quite often lately

Pissed as hell!!!  Asked my cousin to store the calipers and hubs ect at their house somewhere as they also have a double garage. 2 and half weeks later he asks me "what kind with the stuff as the stuff is lying in the rain. So I then ask him to put the stuff in the boot of the car for the day and take it to my other cousin the next day witch is basically down the street. Asked him today did witch is basically a week later if he took the stuff to my other cousin and he says no and I'm like wtf? I asked him did the stuff lie in the rain the whole week and he says yes and its my fault coz I took too long. Like really dude wtf!!! R600 down the drain with my topie's centre console. _________________ Hers:Opel Corsa Chill 1.3 His: Are you kidding me???? When married it states "What is yours is mine what is MINE is MINE!!!!
