She Passed

timspencer · 26th January 2019, 09:18

The black beauty passed her MOT with a few small advisories, surface corrosion on the rear suspension and one brake pipe.

So a bit of rust treatment and some shutz is on the menu.

Also treating her to a full professional valet/detail next week.

Nice. Any more pictures?

Sorry for the delay,

She's been tucked back away in the barn since the MOT, out yesterday to finally have the factory rear sensors replaced with new aftermarket ones.

They work and look really good, in fact you wouldn't know they weren't fitted from new.

Took my Copperleaf in for Cambelt, water pump & aux belt replacement plus oil & filter change and MOT. This car has wanted for nothing and cost me a fortune to maintain. Came away with a bill of £568.68 and a massive MOT fail. The VOSA inspector was there, Copperleaf failed on 2 broken springs at the rear, both low down in the cup, both front drop links, and both anti roll bar bushes. Mechanic says it's due to speed humps and pot holes. Took car home as they have booked it in for next Wednesday. Dread to think how much the next bill will be. Will have to use Moonstone for the next week.
