I am there this evening, and on Saturday - but given the unsecured location of the car, access is availbale anytime.

I did think about the fire before writing that, but I recalled that i needed to tug the wheel and therefore the column to remove the steering wheel that was on it to get it off.

It didnt budge - I certainly would have notcied that. The fire was outside the engine bay, and things like the brake master cylinder reservoir and cap, and column boot and are not distorted so I believe it is fine - I will double check this evening though.

much obliged if you could, dude.

I won't get the chance to get up there till next weekend at the best :( Starting to have one of those "had enough" sort of days. Think I've driven this car three times in six months and one of those it caught fire. Really, what's the bloody point?

I feel the pain dude trust me.

I checked it and its solid as. The car has 50k on the clocks so if you took the box as well,it's a good spare to keep.
