MOT tomorrow
« on: 06 May 2009, 23:12:29 »

first one since I've owned my mig. Given the amount of work I've done on it, the only things I can see that it's likely to fail on are:

Handbrake adjustment (even with the heatshields off, I couldn't get a socket onto the nut - damn propshaft kept getting in the way)

Exhaust back box (rotted, but I still haven't got my replacement from Eternal yet!)

fingers crossed I get an advisory on the exhaust - failing that it'll have to sit in the MOT place until I get the damn thing and let them change it over.

Wish me luck!  :-/ :-/

did you take a note of mileage when dropped off?
Who knows, they might have taken it for a test drive and enjoyed it too much  ::)

NOW you're worrying me! good point though - i took my expensive sunglasses and my newly purchased CDs out of the car before I dropped it off. Mind you, I left my halfrauds toolkit in the boot - little chance on them nicking that!
