Along with the club meet yesterday she had her MOT straight after, made sense as the garage was on the way back home. Less a windscreen chip (that's been there ever since I've had the car) and oddly a missing nut and bolt from the drives side downpipe a clean bill of health. Even asked the tester anything to look out for over the next 12 months, said not a thing and made a comment of her being really clean and tidy underneath - not bad for 92k Happy days 😁

Sorry to hear that, they'll be plenty more I'm sure. - safe drive tomorrow everyone and see you then 👍 -
Sorry to see this pal, one of the rear inner bleed nipples on mine weren't budging so left it be at the recent brake fluid change. Take it you're replacing the inner caliper nipples also?

Hey pal, the Gaydon set up looks as so from the B4100 leading up to the parking area. It's barriered at the top of that long straight to the museum. -
I will just add you need to be getting under your car alot more. Tyres that would fail an MOT due to wear is avoidable, not to mention very dangerous. I was literally under mine today checking over and general housekeeping.

For the price of track rod ends, might aswell replace. I had advisories on those at the last MOT and LCA ball joints rubber boots also. I replaced with polyurethane items as the joint itself was fine. Tad damn...

This evening a little bit of Gaydon prep. Sanding marks on the rear bumper from a previous repair and a couple of RDS on the passenger lower door. 3000 wet sanding Menzerna 1000 & 3 in 1 Poor Boys DA with polishing pads Cut sheet folded round an eraser Knocked out ✅ Random blemish Before: bit of noise going on First light pass to see what's what Second pass After: not perfect but greatly improved

Granted for my own car, I would change the oil and filter every 12 months regardless of the mileage however it not a show stopper given the details from the ad. Same money, I'd rather buy the above car compared to a vehicle having done 5k per year and had all 18 stamps in the book 👍

Weather still looking spot on for Sunday. As we're on grass, be sure to bring your camping chair and il bring the pop up gazebo ✅ -
Looks MEGA!!! ✅ Any more pictures?..
-
Point being at 9,000 miles MOT failure items through wear aren't going to be a concern, along with servicing at 500 or 1000 mile intervals.
-
Cheers pal, hence my initial comment about the average speed cameras around the Evo triangle and how they don't pose a worry 👍
-
Think what Valy was getting at is, the vehicle on average has had a service every 1,000 miles. Compared to having 18 stamps which would have been every 500 miles. The difference will of had no detrimental effect on the engine at all. Exhaust, tyres, brakes and suspension components will have been checked annually as part of the MOT test.

Oh fingers crossed then, will be a sad day

Nice work matey, freshen up 👍 Coming to our Gaydon club event on Sunday?
