Well............. it failed.

3 advisories...... front tyres near their limit and
one jacking point has surface corrosion

And a fail on the handbrake efficiency

I thought it was ok but hey.

So..... new handbrake shoes and the mini compensator on their way as the adjustment was at it's limit.

Go on, tell us: did they quote to 'fix' the handbrake?

They asked me if I wanted them to do it...... I said no thanks..... I want it done properly !

He didn't look very happy.

Not too painful

.

I was expecting something rather more "enthusiastic" than a duff handbrake.

Another year - onwards & upwards.
