Need help with oil leak.
I just took car to mechanic and they said i should replace the belt kit which i got quoted 395 for the kit and not sure abuot installation.
He reckons it will cost just over 1g to install the kit, the rear engine mount and inner boot.
Opinions?
Also my exhaust looks like the owner before me has taken out the muffler and gotten a pipe welded to make it straight through... Is that bad? :/
Anyone want to buy My FTO as is for 14,000 that includes the new sound system.

Then after the gearbox went I just cracked the sh*ts, got it repaired and sold it...
Thought id try again buying a cheaper fto and just fix it up.... Thought I could deal with auto, but no.. I couldn't - to boring!! So gave that one to my now EX GF, then bought My current Silver Manual GPX and i'm finally happy
