Sounds like an Amazon delivery. I ordered a specialist battery for one of our alarms. Less than 2cms long it came in a shoebox size package.

Current daily driver is an Impreza Den (affectionately known as "the trifle destroyer" after a minor mishap ferrying family and certain foodstuffs to a party). My previous car would relieve me of the best part of 900 quid for all four corners so 550 for a set of Bridgestones isn't bad going really. Everything mounts up though having recently paid nearly £700 for a new headlight - the wet winter seems to have taken it's toll on the seals in HID lamps though as I've seen a lot of people lately driving around with just one eye working.
When I was running the supercharged Integra that would wear out a set of fronts in about 7,000 miles or so! small mercies.

Plenty there Tinky for you to enjoy and if anyone misbehaves themselves then you can always let the hose loose on them as well.
