Changed the lower suspension arm on the daughters car this morning. When i said i'd do it for her it was after watching a YouTube video, it looked an easy job, jack car up take wheel off undo 3 bolts remove suspension arm fit new arm do up 3 bolts fit wheel on and lower jack easy but no my daughters KA is different to the one in the video i watched as there was a big lump of metal bolted to where the one bolt i had to take out was so it had to come off as well took me 3 hours and it was fucking freezing  

I had to unbolt the front bumper to remove that lump of metal luckily every bolt came undone without any problems. Saved the daughter £108 in labour oh wait it saved her £178 because i paid for the part as well

My daughter would not be seen dead driving my Dacia 😂........ I can't say I am a fan of her Pugshite 207, it is definitely a womans car.

I don't think I would even get away with that, the fuckers would come and get me if it's that problematic.    To be honest for me working in the bad weather just adds to the fun, slows things down a bit that's all.  . 🤣

Yes it can be fun but i don't think you work in it like i have to work in it the fun tends to go quite quickly especially when your beard freezes LOL

Pain in the arse aren't they. Fiat 500 with a ford badge so it's going to be more complicated.

I ended up watching a YouTube video on how to do the same job on a fiat 500 they seem to be very similar
