MOT pass
That's it for another year. No advisories.
This year I have fitted New front struts, springs top bearings (dust covers, pinch bolts etc) drop links and track rod ends. Replaced lower engine mount (although the old one was fine) Replaced crankshaft pulley/damper (although it only had a very slight rattle) How much spent this year ? I'm not counting the NAV 2 as that was a want, not a need. £600 + MOT £50 What could I buy for £650 ? Nige |

Ouch. To be fair none of it was done for mot purposes. I've had a slightly clunky top bearing for two years and it needed doing and the dust cover was adrift on that side so decided to renew the lot a couple of months back. MOT tester said the car was spot on mechanically. My boy's ZTT went through yesterday needing a tyre to pass.

Year five and another pass. Advisory on front brake pipes. Agony yet again. Does she go or does she stay.
