It now needs a front bumper (any colour will do) and a N/S/F indicator lense, I know the latter is cheap but he is on a budget at the mo.
Thanks Jez

Bits for my Bro's 16v
Had a call from my Brother in Law today and his car has rolled down his road on its own and damaged a few bits

Hi Dave,
I'm not to sure to be honest, he did mention he thought one of the cables had snapped but he has not looked yet, dare say i will have to mend it for him so when i do I'll get some pics and find out for sure.

its not the suspension that causes the problem but the heat in the front discs, with the position of the hub and caliper and handbrake linkage the body moves around the suspension and not the suspension around the body, the handbrake cables stay roughly in the same position.
If the hand brake was on the rear however, as the suspension sinks the brake calipers actually rotate around the disc and this would cause the hand brake to come off. And this is the reaso the bx (and as far as i know most other HP citroens)have the hand brake at the front not the rear!
