Sorry I couldn't make it!

I would have liked to come along on that drive - but........

On Saturday morning, I took the SVX to a good mechanic friend of mine to machine the front discs and fit new pads all round.

That was fine, but in the process, we discovered that the front CV joint boots had split - ON BOTH SIDES!!

The grease had completely covered the front suspension and tie rods!!!

Until I get this fixed (probably on Wednesday), I am doing as little driving as possible!

At least I can use the brakes without the whole car shuddering!

Jason.
