On examination the Rover Streetwise don't look too bad. All brakes work, and I have adjusted the handbrake. Front pads look good, rear is drum.The exhaust central section is blowing slightly, at £22 I shall replace that. I have replaced the reversing light bulb, now all lights work. The tyres should pass, the wipers no longer smear, and I can detect no play in the steering or suspension. There is no serious rust.
The CV gaiters are not split and look fine to me. The heater fan runs all the time at full speed, that's not a fail, is it?
I note in the past I have greased the brake pipes. However, I found a section I missed, and it is not rusty.
The car has locking wheel nuts, and nuts they are, that screw on to studs They have 19mm heads, not sure how to replace them, so they remain.
The improvised front exhaust hanger is to replace a hanger on the cat section that broke off. That can remain. The gauze around the flexible section is loose, but the flexi section is not blowing.
