lol, thanks,

its not that hard on these 206s its all very simple, even things like torsion bars are not hard when you think about it,

as mine was not rusted as i have moved it a few times, i can adjust the torsion bars in 10mins on that car Laughing

i have just changed the turbo & manifold on my van lol.

ah yea, my mate drives a mk 4 astra van, that used to be his work horse till the engine went, so he retired it and had it resprayed in silver and lowered etc and had a new engine with a turbo on it, was a good van after that hehe Very Happy wondered if you'd done the same.
