Got another MOT fail ;D

Clearly the right call, if somewhat harsh ;D

Ordering the part proving tricky, as the dealer is being an arse :(

Its the repeater in the mirror - water ingress has made it a bit dim.

I can get pattern easily enough, but they all seem to be those stupid, dangerous and completely gay animated ones that poofters and Audi drivers love.  Hence having to go to a dealer to get an overpriced genuine part.

All that meticulous servicing and hard work you do on it is obviously paying off  :)

anyway ........

Astras are pretty resilient   ;D
