well long story short(ish)

was thinking to my self.. hmmm this cold ticking is pissing me off. so poked my head under the hood. and checked the oil EKKK!:furious4: someoen aint changed it in a while i thought. so arranged a booking to get fluids done.

turned out gearbox, engine and break fluids needed doing. and there was no coolant either.
When i collected the car she started up silent as ever so i thoguth she may have been operated that day for what ever reason. on sunday mornign with a proper cold start she purred. i was in love , no more cold ticking.

also got a NEW battery to replace the dead one i had.

That's okay then, I was under the impression that you got it directly from Mag and Turbo.

Regarding the Brembos, I would say there are almost certainly more. Pretty sure I can think of three off the top of my head in addition to yours :)
