Almost passed the MOT 1st time.......

Post by Turbogirlie »

Broken Anti Roll Bar Clamp stopped it going through! But the tester also missed the broken coil spring on the drivers side on the front - but the garage that took it for MOT didn't........ :ire:

Have a spare spring! Hurrah! :hugegrin:

Hopeful to get the clamp from the stealership in next few days. :shocking:

Not bad for a 24yr old car which should have been scrapped 5yrs ago....... :help:

Thanks to a few people on here, past & present, my shed lives to see it's 25th Birthday next July! :hi:

Just wanted to share this good news with you all! :laugh:

If this is the case - the garage I use is waiting to hear from the stealers - has anyone any idea where to get one from, other than breakers? :yup:

Cheers for that Risocco - sounds like something you have for dinner - oh sorry that's Risotto! Presumably the same Alex as was Idlewillkill? Why the name change bud? How's life in the Costa del Kiddy these days? :wakey:

Will give em a ring 2moz if my garage hasn't heard from the stealers. :blush:
