Well sat in a lovely cafe this morning I had blueberry pancakes and a

Cappuccino... very nice, reading Che Guevara's Notes on a Latin American Journey ~ or better known as The Motorcycle Diaries, which was made into a film recently

The reason I was doing this and also incessantly looking at the time on my mobile phone was my car was having its MOT.

 

 

It passed :dance:

 

 

 

Now the good bit after getting my headlights realigned, they had never been done since I had the accident with my new hid's too now I will be able to see in a straight line :dance: I am easily pleased

 

However the MOT tester was lovely and chatted to me about car's

He found a few things that need attention

 

Please guys/gals tell me what is the most important and how much,? thank you!

 

in no paticular order

 

1. Oil leak (slight) from turbos

2. rear anti roll bar drop links badly perished (this sounds horrendous, please explain)

3. N/S/F Brake binding slightly

4. Slight tread seperation in both rear tyres

5. O/S sill stone guard cracking

 

I would also like to get a new propshaft as I think universal joints/bearing have gone and a new heater matrix

 

Any suggestions/comments/ideas would be most welcome

Good news to hear it passed Di.

 

Brake bind is probably lack of use!!

Rear drop link bushes arnt major.

Turbo oil leak sounds like time for a change

Tyres are tyres

Sill panel wants a fresh blast of stone chip!!

If you are at the meet this month then I have some bushes you can have :D

how much did you bung him? sounds like it should have failed lol!

Scoops

 

Got a good deal as they were doing a special offer in March on MOT's for £37.50 I paid £4.70 for a headlight alignment

 

So £42.20

not bad it was the £175.00 for a years tax that made me cough.... :shock:

 

Now I'm a little confused is my car in that bad nick :cry:

 

Scawni oh yes please that would be lovely

 

I've had a really hard time lately so need a bit cheering up :)

You might be right about the brakes lol (not known for having my zed on the road let alone driving it fast :rolleyes: :o , though think one of my discs might be a bit warped

 

change of turbos or an oil change? the tubs are recent recon ~ new so hope not :cry:

 

Will be changing the tyres/wheels to 17"in next few months anyways, but I knew about that, so nowt knew there

Hi Em. Not seen you around since the X-cell meet last year. Turbo leak is probably the feed or return pipe just weeping.
