GOOD LUCK

I'm confident from all the time you've had the car and the work you've done that it will be fine!

First run out.......Breakfast Club at Kemble? It would be fantastic to see it there after all this time.......
.........Also........Not too far for the breakdown truck.........

Very Best Wishes

MOT is booked for the 25th ,
i have the whole week off to cry into my manuals looking how to fix everything she might fail on

then its save up , as i have to buy four new tyres before the MOT....

development.....


MOT now put back by 2 days to Wednesday , just a little more tinkering time, as i have all week off
anyway


scraping noise ( not MOT issue ) underneath sorted out , prop-shaft weight scraping on the large heat shield , a small bit of fettling , and its sorted

electronic speedo ( not MOT issue ) not reading, minor adjustment of the pickup on the diff , and all is now fine

front tyres catching on bodywork ( MOT issue ) on full lock , inner wing baffles/stone guards being caught by new tyres , minor adjustment with a big hammer, and some new undercoat and its all sorted

just got to see if i can clear the induced ABS fault by spinning up the back wheels on the jacks without the fronts moving ,
so need to drive her at over 15mph to clear the ABS ECU ,

Headlights have been adjusted as best i can , will see when on the machine

some extra fuel with injector cleaner has been added ,

If she does fail - I'm sure that it would only be on minor stuff....

Just avoid the snow and ice when driving to the test station!!

[Brakebuster]

thanks

no snow or ice round here ,

also fully insured as of midnight last night , not bad for £163

That's a good price - mine was £150 for 3K miles.

Glad you have escaped the snow and ice - it's been a pain in Midlands as it has been drifting loads. I'm due to get the cat out of hibernation next week ready for "spring" (and the Jag London to Brighton and then Gaydon the following week).
