Because it is an arse of a job.

Try doing a search for the write up I did and you will see.

It is almost impossible to calculate how long jobs in these cars are going to take.

Some jobs I have done expectin to finish in an hour have taken an entire weekend.

When I did my engine in out I spent 5 hours drilling and tapping out the tray that covers the underneath of the engine bay. Every bolt sheared off. Total nightmare.


Should be worth the wait though.

cheers turbo pete,

Jobs usually take me longer than expected : starts off an hour job and 2 days later your finished......just frustrating thats all.......

all in all I had the car a month and it's been on the road about 5 days!!!!!!!!! and this tigra I'm driving is no comparison, even though it's only 2 years old and my 200 is like 12 years old!!!!

anyway, should def be worth the wait,
