I've done a 2km road test so far.

Fingers crossed that it is a goodun.

Took the Sport back up to the garage to have some work done prior to the MOT - the bit hadn't arrived, so brought it back home again - Rebooked it in for Thursday.
This is the bit I need (no 13)
A new one of them (£90) should really tighten up my steering an prevent wear on the idler and other steering components - I hope.

Hmm, ok, so my terminology might be a little out. EPC refers to it as a "Rod, Assy, Tie, Outer".
