you ever welded upside down? it's a fcuking b1tch. i had a mate (unfortunately now RIP) who could weld absolutely anything! i'm not joking, he was like one of those cuban guys you see on tv who could make a pattern of a panel out of cardboard and then make the thing from steel better than the original...
i'll be happy to let you have a go James, we'll have to reccy the situation sometime 
how's the new zorst? 
Sitting in the back or the Megane waiting to be fitted this evening.
Bloody vauxhall make the cat and centre section one piece. All i need is the centre so i'm going to have to cut the one on there and then mate it to the new section. It's all straight forward as that is how the centre section was designed (with a female connection) so it should all just slide together. we'll see.
I’ll let you know how i get on later, if this f**king rain would appease a little
I got so cross on Saturday as i was putting the brake servo in. You have to take the wiper assembly apart and the plastic cowling around the wipers has to come off too. so with the bonnet up, just as i had the servo out (i.e. a gapping whole into the passenger compartment) the heaven opened. Not only did that fill the footwell but it also got in through the pollen filter (which i should have changed as its a little hard to get to).
Driving to tescos that evening, i thought "hey lets have a little demisting", as you can imagine the water in the system turned to steam and the whole car became a sauna in under 10 seconds. And, in the process totally blinding me.
All that to say that i was not best pleased

Good you see you chaps again and Nic.
I thought TTs new shed fitted in well 
My bloody shed! 
I took the servo out today (which meant the removal of the pedal box, wiper motor and assembly),that took a couple of hours and then i had to do it all again in the scrap yard. They offered to do it for 5 quid, but thats nearly 10 liters of fuel so i declined. In the end it only took me 30min the second time round (including the cutting of a few corners). 25 quid for a new servo.
Rain has stopped play now so i can't put it back together again.
I really hope that fixes it though because after that it can only be the vacum pump and that looks expensive.
It's what you get for only paying 200 quid for a car.
Loving the fact that the parts cost so little though. Centre section exhaust: 17 Great British pounds. 
really don't think that the shed is likely to get a new MOT come november. looks like it requires a new driver's side lower suspension mounting bracket panel/ front of the chassis leg welding, as well as work around the driver's side inner wheel arch (where it meets the floorpan)
