    Yes both of the plugs are fitted back properly with new washers. it doesnt seem to be a clunking or a grinding noise , it's hard to describe really. you can just hear the engine move and feel it when coming up on the clutch if that makes sense.... Thanks for the pictures of the engine mounts...

    hi all, need bit of help.

    Check all the relevant fuses not sure which ones they are but you can just check on the covers/manuals, also the plugs behind the dash could of came out but that would be a different fault to the windows not working etc. I wouldn't buy the car personally till this was all working
