...because, the sun may be out, it may have a lovely V8 grumble but today I hate it!! Aggghhhhhhhh.

Having just treated it to new boots all round, and a new headlight to get it through the MOT, the dip beam was out of alignment.

No problem, take of the number plate, remove the grill and make the adjustments. Oh no, nothing is that simple. This is the first time I've had to do this and the adjusters, or rather whats left of them is rustier than a rusty thing in a tank of salt water.!

So, what to do? Do I buy new lights? If so what, how much and where from or do I just torch it because it's a PITA?

Thanks for listening.

Right, it just passed the MOT after a few hours of wresteling with Sikaflex and £4 worth of setscrews and butterflies from B&Q.

And I suppose i can forgive it now, having just blasted back from the MOT station with the roof down and the soundtrack of that V8.
