Well, time for another update.
Got the car home today, starting and driving well. Nice and straight apart from a slight wobble at 60mph, which I'm putting down to a bad ding in one of the back wheels, which I'm been told will repair. I shaped at overhauling the brakes this afternoon. Got new pads but knew the discs were in good shape, just needing a scratch with some 120 emery pads on a grinder. One side done... Rear disc with caliper removed Handbrake shoes are original (199 and like new... Front drivers side with all off Rear drivers side finished Front drivers side done Once the brakes are done, couple of other wee things including that back wheel but main thing is to get mileage corrected before booking it in for an MOT. Once she's MOT'd, I'll use her until the weather breaks and then do the wheels over the winter. |

Cars going up for the MOT this week now that I have the logbook back and a couple of small niggles sorted. Just need to give it a wee service tomorrow, Oil, Filters etc and give it a good wash underneath. No more interesting photos unfortunately, fingers crossed for the MOT though, should be ok.

Very good, I was waiting for that. All for a bit of craic hey, good laugh like.
For others reading, car sailed through MOT without a single word, taxed that afternoon and since driven about 300 miles without a fault. Could do with the AC being gassed up but now that I'm on my way offshore and won't be home until October, I doubt I'll be needing AC between now and next summer.
