some bloke in pilling. gearbox expert. he does cabbies gearboxes, and hes the one they all send them too.

he gives a full warranty on his work, and if cabbies take theres too him, then i expect him to be thorough!

(should be back on the road tomorrow at the latest).

Mines at the garage too :(

MOT retest today after it failed on chip in windscreen and rear discs ,so replaced the windscreen and the discs at the weekend and gave it a good clean yesterday.

Will post some pics up 2mo seen as i havent done so yet

You want to meet up 1 weekend as ive never really seen another williams myself and would like to see what the condition of my car is like compared to others.
