What Wives Do (normally)

i wnet to a place that mixes touch up in a can in Leamington matched the nearest to there sample and blended in and sprayed its not perfect but its better than leaving it you could spend 120 and do it again a week later its like dings its gonna happen for sure -
The hinges are welded on post and door and have adjusted the striker plate all ways to tighten loosen lift and drop with no improvement the other three doors are fine think ill have to let them loose on it and hope for the best

anybody bought the Ford bike rack that goes on tailgate it looks like a Fiamma one but the fiamma lisying says a bracket for 2001 onwards,I had one that pulled tight with straps from halfords byt it sits on the glass which worries me a bit.The ford one is nice and high and looks like it clamps on solidly and doesnt need a trailer board.What do other people use?
-
i made up some brackets but they are fiddly to do then migd them on,had a welded nut in they are from 18g steel but have to be folded and welde so they dont bend as people often lean on them to get in etc.they also get in way of fridge a bit so the pull off ones would be better if id known they were available.Am thinking of making stand for fridge to lift it about 6" for my new galaxy to save the hassle
-
130 ps galaxy is 200kg and it pulls like anything,got 1500kg sterling jewel and it flies only about 22mpg tho
-
ill see what one costs from stealer,at least i can put it back to sell it dont like the headrests either,the bars are to long with the child seats and dont push right to seat so its awkward folding seats forward,you would think the design would improve on newer versions,also the trip computer doesnt give distance to fill up.If my old one had been as fast as my 130 i would have kept it til it fell apart
-
ive got it and i think its c*** its too small and pushing a dip lever hardly hurts i wish id got my old one back

Air Con Display Flashinig
davec replied to psolak's topic in Ford Galaxy Technical Section MK I MK II
had mine in for service they said it warning of fault,possible module or temp sensors did it for three years still doing it when i partexd it aircon worked fine -
changed my 110 for a new 130 and am amazed by difference in power,now im wondering if something was wrong,it was gutless over 2500 rpm and when pulling van it was pathetic,i almost wish id had it checked over,just thought that was how they were
