Well, up till the early hours of the morning finishing the fitting of the new clutch and brake master cylinder, final fitting of new seals, seats etc ready for todays MOT and i got there early today and she......FAILED....

Good news is that after all the work, she only failed on th two front tyres which have worn inside!!! What an annoying thing to fail on!!

Good news though, everything else is 100%!!

Tyres worn on the inside generally means a tracking issue. Get the tyre place to check the tracking when doing the tyres.

Cheers Guys!! The MOT guy was really complimentary about the car and how honest she seems...

She's quite a different beast to what she was when i picked her up over 2 years ago!! Remember you spotted me within 1 hour of ownership Lee??!!cool

tyre wise, after i changed the front bushes to poly bushes last year, i put it back on and drove for about 800 miles before i had the geometry re set up and by then i had already done most of the damage....I'm still amazed they were illegal, ive driven confidently on much worse!!eek

ideaI should really put them on the back for a send off??....

Carpet wise, looking good!!! Ill go and take some photos...needs a hoover as ive only just finished but you'll get the idea!!
