That Time of year...MoT Fail...
Discussion
I put this update into my Reader's Cars entry:
http://www.pistonheads.com/gassing/topic.asp?h=0&a...
Put the jaaaag into Nene Jags today for its 100k service and MoT.
Got given this rather nice Courtesy car, a 2.5 V6 with 6 speed auto 'box and 146k on the clock, it drives very well and has returned around 30+mpg so far (across the full driving envelope...)
They checked the Errant ABS light before it went in and confirmed that it is wiring, but unfortunately in the main ABS Harness, so that is a £130 hit (hopefully covered under warranty)
It then went and failed on corroded Brake Pipes (£135) and worn Front Wishbone Bushes (£350ish) which I was kind of expecting as I could feel that they were worn.
I should get it back tomorrow hopefully and we will see what the final damage is...
The service from Nene Jags so far has been excellent

Just picked the car up, having shelled out almost £1200....ouch!
But for that I had:
100k Service
Drive belt
MoT
ABS Harness
Upper Wishbone Bushes
Front Brake Pipes
NS Door Module (electric Window)
Engine Flush
A few items I need to work through in the coming months, mainly to do with bushing at the front end -OO-er missus
Nice to get it back though!
Service from Nene Jags was very good, constant calls to keep me up to date and they sourced a second hand Door Module too, which saved me about £100
