nothing really major then. Nothing a couple of hours work wont sort and just go to halfords or a cmaping shop and buy a couple of stick on reflectors.

people keep bringing up halfords as a place to get parts, repair ur car.

I think halfords are pretty sh*t to be honest. (One near me is).

They ok if u need a set of plugs or an overpriced headunit.

They are for people who don't know much about cars. i.e. Need a new windscreen wiper or Get them to change ur headlamp and charge you ?20 for the privelage. (Either Rich or dumb people who can't change a light bulb on their own car).
