I've got my eye on a car, and in the advert it states the driver's side driveshaft has recently started knocking.
Does anyone know how expensive/easy it is to replace this, and can anyone here do it?
Thanks!

Scott and *insert any of the London guys with tools* could easily do it in about an hour. Probably 30 quid for a shaft and tea and bacon costs

Well i don't mind helping with it but might need Chris tools as I don't think I have a big enough socket for the shaft nut
