    They say as i understood can only pay 2k max per bike.. In my future purchases i will have to limit the value of the bike to £1,500 + blings = £2000 … Something like this

    Gambled a desk/office job recently because when they moved me to a new and farther site they start making me work on some weekends and odd hours just to show up to check on something (like driving an hour for a 2hr checks) ..messed up my cycling days.. Took the redundancy money and started a new job robot welding stuff 😯 paycut is is significant.. Enough to buy me 2 yeti 575 XT every year … Happier on the new job now (i think) adjustment on money is not easy … 🙁

    Car is ford focus 2.0 tdci mk2 “06” reg on 89k mileage. The quote means replacement of all includes dmf + con slave cylinder.

    ..i thought a lot of people compalin about single flywheel making vibrations and such?…

    …..and i will be keeping the car, as i have changed most parts already that needs changing (car age wise) ..and i know minor repairs for this particular car already.

    …i really want to tell my local mechanic that mr. Clutch quote is £171 lesser.. Would it be wise?

    No idea about DMF mate.. But both says replacement clutch kit+DMF+con slave cylinder.. If this makes sense.

    And dont know what brand is the replacement.. Mr.clutch probably bought their stuff like wholesale probably why it comes cheap.. My local mech always put the good one..(as i believe) i remember before i want a cheap part of my car that needs replacement which he refused to fit as its made of cheese and dont want me to keep coming back because of it.

    The garden sits in the middle of townhouses and no exit but thru the front door., theft has to climb 6ft fence of four houses either way ..or back neighbours house and climb just 6ft fence.

    That steel mesh seems like a good idea and say a bucket of concrete as anchor, another question. Say, the whole inside of that shed will be covered with steel mesh.. How do you lock this all together without using welding equipment?
