I've got her back!!!
Discussion
Well, after sending my P&J off to Dan Melladay in Skellingthorpe for an MOT and service just over a week ago, I've got her back 
Despite getting a bill that was, ahem, shocking £1600
i am more than happy with the work that was done.
I had the following sorted:
New Avo shocks n springs with full set up
Rad Reconditioned
Full service
Various ball joints and bits
An ECU/wiring fault found and sorted (stopping the fuel pump randomly)
Strange alternator fault leaving light on but charging battery!!
Exhaust gaskets replace
Full front cat de-cat
Full camber and tracking re-adjustment.
Steering rack sorted out due to gaiter issues
Various other bits and bobs.
It's like driving a different car!!! The handling is fantastic.
the de-cat has released a shed-load of extra power and crispness, without making too much extra noise
Dan was also honest about a couple of things that he could have done, but gave me the option of leaving them for a while.
The car is now perfect, which aint bad considering its a 1994 model!!!
