Default What an Effing Pain!

Finally got around to replacing the split top turbo hose on
the 156 1.9JTD

It *should* have been a simple case of undoing 2 jubly
clips - *WHY* do they insist on putting the nut part in
*the* most inaccessible place? - more to the point *how*?

2 1/2 bloody (literally!) hours!
