Nearly got there!
Windscreen washer failed, worked when I left for the MOT failed. New pump, £8.75 - resolved
Rear offside brake not working (foot brake). One of the pistons was seized, new cylinder, £7.55 - resolved
So retest for Tuesday morning
Awesome mats from Torquepartz arrived as well, will get a better image and post it. They’re awesome on all levels, and I’m looking forward to seeing them in the car, once taxed and tested.

Re: Nearly! MOT after a recommission
Dag-nam-it
MOT retest delayed for the foreseeable. Started the car yesterday morning up at my barn, squeak and other non-descript noises from Cambelt area (new Gates tensioner and belt fitted 34 miles and 1 week earlier)...
Slackened off the aux belt from alternator and restarted - still there.... Question on the appropriate board.
Drat!

Re: Nearly! MOT after a recommission
If the cambelt is too tight it will make a noise like you have a supercharger fitted and the noise changes with the engine revs.
Check that the belt is not catching on the covers.
