The old Omega barge is up for it's MOT next week. The list so far....

1) Four new Falken tyres - £294
2) New central and rear 'zorst (patented parts, cheap!) - £208
3) New wishbones - £117
4) Fitting of the two above at local garage who I trust - £250
5) MOT - £45
6) Full wheel setup and alignment after MOT - £65

Could have PX'd it I suppose, but I love the thing and it's a true Q ship, sheer luxury, and will hopefully take me across Europe next year hence the bucks. Ans it was posting quicker lap times than most of the Elises on my last Walshy day!

Just a word of warning to anyone looking at getting a barge runaround, make sure it has a full years ticket on it.....
