So i guess you could say it used to be an occupation and a hobby but now its neither i prefer to stay ni the warm and keep my hands clean and uncut. But then again i did replace burst flexible brake hoses on my car this year myself to save me £150

Its nice to have the option of DIY or paying someone isnt it I know thats why Im learning as much about my car as possible now. So far im finding im good with some of the more complicated things but dont know some of the really elimentary stuff.

I did say this was a general Car question thread so its not far off topic
