£250 MGF How bad can it be?
Discussion
Having changed the discs and pads at the weekend, the MOT got done today.
Not too bad really.
The MOT tester reckons that the tyre has scrubbed so badly because of the play in the suspension but also because the hydragas is running a bit low. He owned an MGF and had a look over it while it was up on the ramp and said he couldn't see anything untoward with the spheres etc so looks like a £30 top up.
I have also bought a few bits to tidy up the scabby bits of interior.
Gaiters need replacing
as do the scabby door cards
So to date:
Original purchase- £250.00
Discs and pads £61.75
Interior trim parts £30.00
MOT £50
Track rod ends £15
Ball joint x2 £20
Hydragas top up £30
Two part worn 185/55 R15 Toyo Proxes T1-R £45
Total: £501.75
