could always try what i usually do... i remove my hex tip from my drivers and put it in my drill and use that, but slowly and carefully as you dont want to strip it, but obviously the drill will do it stronger give that a go if you can mate

Did you use threadlock on the grub screw and leave it to dry long enough before using it?

haha, im not doing anything big on this car thats not my thing, it was years ago looking at magazines but strangley enough for my age(17) i actually want to keep my car fairly standard, bits n pieces here n there tbh, but yeah the DMB badges are small and tasteful depending on colour, in a way i wish my fezza was green as i really like the black and lime green badges but my interior is black and blue so cant really get those haha
-
ive been on zsoc for a few months now mate, wicked forum and am waiting for funds to buy some of their window stickers lovely looking fezza there! im not a fan of bonnet bra's though :/ at the moment im currently looking to LED the license plate lights and side repeaters, and HID bulb the front headlights and spot lights, and also getting some DMB gel front and rear badge covers in white with black ford logo on them, small and subtle things really

wow! today i had my first lesson with my dad, jumped straight in and started driving, was VERY nervous, which being in my own car i think made me worse. was so much fun, i got used to it a bit, went through from 1st,2nd and 3rd in my dads small area to get used to it all, so much harder than a CVT scooter(twist n go), but i'll get used to it, fezza is lovely to drive, and the popping from the exhaust is AMAZING! dad said i did really well for first lesson, i even managed a hill start had to pop the bloody l plates on for the driving obviously, and it looked like this haha: oh, and once drive over, whipped l plates off and lined my ped up next to the car - awesome! that drive was amazing though, few mistakes here n there but thats to be expected... enjoyed it so much!

hi guys, so yesterday i bought my first car(with my own hard earned cash, not my parents ), its a 51 plate ford fiesta zetec s, very good looking and nippy little car... has 78000 miles on it, no rust on rear arches(a common fault with these fiestas), its pretty much emaculate other than few scratches here n there, which is to be expected on a 12-13 year old car. got what i think is the best colour(silver) which is the easiest to keep clean car has 2 6x9's on the parcel shelf and a sony head unit, and a custom exhaust system(which im awaiting a message from previous owner for a description of what it is) however it sounds pretty tasty(vid below) exterior is mint as is the interior, i havent passed my test yet as im planning to do a years provisional driving on this car(im going to learn with my dad) as i have my scooter for commuting, im mainly learning for the year to get the valuable 1 years no claims bonus ready for next year, cost me just under 900 quid to provisionally insure this car, and next year after my years no claims the quotes show to be around 1800-1900 rather than the 4 and a half grand they wanted now to be fully insured(which btw were all from price comparison sites... anyways i best shut up, as i could talk all day about this, it genuinly made me smile for about an hour without fault, couldnt stop pics: heres the startup and rev vid:

some people... went to view a car today and the car has negative toe on the front wheels, that are bald on the inside with the wires hanging out! dodgy paint on one side, and engine doesnt run properly 100%... obvious he thinks someone isnt going to check these things, just hope someone doesnt come along and doesnt check them.
