Attempted to tidy out the shed today after the other half walked straight into a front bumper hanging from the roof at about head height laugh


She has renamed it the Fiat spares storage unit and told me to sort it out.

I have explained this is a requirement of owning such a car.


Please help me out here with proof its not just me with spare parts in the shed or garage.

She'll never understand, just make sure it's as tidy as possible!

If I lived in the UK I'd have a shed full of spares too.

All I have is 6no 5 litre containers of Mobil 1 15w50 and a spare set of LE front lips.

Oh and a spare set of spark plugs.
Oh a spare expansion tank cap too.
Forgot I have a set of LHD headlights aswell.
And a water pump.
And spare side repeaters.
And a spare HID kit.

Wait a minute ooo

It's slowly happening me too ooo

I'm hoping to add a spare bootlid and front bumper too and two spare alloys for trackdays laugh

I'm gonna need a bigger shed blush

I dread to think what I've got. There's 2 bumpers, exhaust manifolds, inlets, fuel rails, coil pack covers, water rail, old turbo, all sorts of samco hoses....

The last time I cleared the garage out I had around 40 litres of USED oil laugh

- front grille
- 2 x 5 litres Silkolene
- several Pinin bages
- spare expansion cap

the rear bumper is, well not mint? there is areas on the right hand side where some one has attempted a spray job. Hence it being replaced. That said it would make a good spare if yours it getting repaired

My garage has a few spare parts including:

2x tyres
1x starter motor
1x alternator
1x undertray
1x radiator
1x MAF thingy
1x steering wheel

No doors though or panels. Don't think I have space for panels given the other items in the garage (boxes, mowers, etc). smile

I've hardly got anything, just a rear bumper, a wing, a MAF or 2 and a load of screws, nuts & bolts in the hedge.
Does anyone have a standard front spring they don't want?
