[Field Marshal Dr. Opti]

I've just had news that she has passed.

I was told the coil spring was broken about 8 months ago so how is it possible? (unless a broken spring is not an MOT failure)

I can only assume that the Signum is such an advanced design that the metal 'heals itself' like a broken bone. It is either that or witchcraft.

That's brilliant news Opti!!

Your lucky day eh!

I'll take you for a spin later Lizzie......and even allow you to take the wheel.

Are you sure Opti you would want me to?

We could stop for a spot of lunch in a charming country pub......and then.

[Doctor Gollum]

Vectra springs are easy enough to change, cost about £40 each last time I did a pair

You are a very naughty girl.

I'm expecting it to fail on a broken spring at the front. Other than that it's fingers crossed.

I've also asked then do do an oil and filter change. I supply the oil and filter they charge £20 to do the job.

Where do you get it done? Many places get sniffy about doing labour only & id like to do the same ...

It's a little family run business in Powys.

Labour charges (when I'm here) are usually £40 P/H.

And there was me thinking Sleaford way! Doh .....

My 3.2 passed it's MOT, so now legal again

Always good news.

[tunnie]

How much do people pay these days for a MOT? I paid £25 which I thought was rather good for a Vx specialist

[Terbs]

£45 each for mine
Great news that yours passed

£35 at the garage 100m down the road. They even park the car in front of the house when it's done.

[2boxerdogs]

They picked the Fiat up & returned it £40 all in.

[STEMO]

Five indie garages in close proximity to me, they all charge what the lowest priced one charges, about £30 I think.

I would expect that to fly through if you've looked after it, as it pretty tidy example
