What Have You Bought Today?

I've owned a few sports cars in my time but never even aspired to those levels of auto cleanliness! Hats off to you.
 
The other day was a wee spending spree. CRX50 bought, today was EHU cable and thermal blinds in prep for a wee camping trip with the missus.
As long as I can keep the prosecco cool she is happy!

Bought one of these for the breaker bar. Not cheap but a good bit of kit.
My first thought was 'curse you foxie, that's something else that I didn't know I needed' and then I remembered that I'd bought a nice big Halfords 60-300nm torque wrench a few weeks ago which will do it for me (but I'll use the 3' breaker to loosen the bolts off first).

I also have a torque but a breaker is sometimes a tad better with the ratchet attachement. If you use a 6 point socket in a confined space, you sometimes have little or no room to move the bolt or nut and the attachements does give a little more room. Try removing the the 21mm brake caliper bolts and you will see what I mean, especially the front NS and the back OS. The FOS and RNS, you can get your foot on the torque to loosen them but its so much easier with a long breaker and the ratchet. Funny, it not as hard to re torque than loosen these bolts?
 
I know what you mean (but I'm still thinking about buying one as I have a minor tool problem). TBH, the chances of me ever ever ever taking a brake caliper off are smaller than a small thing winning a really small thing competition and even if I did do it, the chances of it going back on and ever working properly again are probably nil.
 
Nice little 18 lt fridge for days out / overnight . After following @Dellmassive thread on biggger fridges . Looks good quality .I was after one that fits between the captains seats but They are only 10 lt and not a lot of options .
I have a proper 80lt fridge for when camping as we use a tent & EHU .

Have you been the doctors about your minor "tool" problem.
 
Having read this thread, my new additional door seals have arrived today. Looking forward to a better door closing experience. :eek:)
