Tomorrow at 8:30am @ Tower View. Hope it all goes OK - especially as I've just speant all my spare money on Panther

Oh, getting it Waxoyled while it is there - the car that is, not the Panther.

Err, I've no particular reason for telling you lot this, other than I've not posted here for days, so needed an excuse

Just had my first MOT done.....failed but only on minor counts ! It is being serviced (full 12,000 miles) by David Batty now so that should cover all the minor MOT failures, so I can breathe again

Should be available for me to pick up tomorrow ... fingers crossed.

Still toying with the idea of de-catting and adding a new s/s exhuast also from Mr Batty

I might have to wait until the new year.

Good Luck with the MOT.

P.S. Who, or what, is the Panther (assuming you haven't got two open top sports cars, or a six wheeled beast)?

Just realised that my MOT expires in two weeks and it's the 1st one as well so starting to feel a little nervous even through i haven't booked her in yet...But i am sure things will go fine.

Had my S MOT'd a few weeks back... failed on headlight adjustment (explains why they were crap!) and a minor fuel leak (!) - weaping from the fuel filter!!!!

Still, all sorted by DB, and as happy as larry

(but yes, it is nerve wreaking!)

Well, that's a good start - 50 minutes on the A40 to do 1 junction - turned back. I will try again later...

Hopefully that'll be the worst bit of the day over then...

Dunno... I saw a few down there at the end of September when I collected mine... which also passed with flying colours.

Which was nice.
