no how you feel scrunty.my mig passed a coupla weeks ago .as for your gls you can allways get the boy to do your welding (not) only kidding mate
If the Miggy got to a conditition that it needed any welding matey, then it would be gone.
I blew the rear box appart when the padding came out, it didnt fail it's last MOT for the box but he did mention the padding was coming out. It may need other exhaust parts, but i have a full system including the cats for it in 00% new condition.
Brakes could be poor, they are new Apec disks and pads fitted before the MOT last time, but my mate didnt have any copperslip to put on the back of the pads to stop them squealing, and on the test it had started yo pull left on the brake test. The car is also stood a lot so I expect the worst on the brakes. Allthough the car has just been moved to it's new home my mate said he had no complaints regards the brakes after they cleaned up a little.
Also it tends to wander intermitantly to the left as if a bush has gone.
So will see when it goes for a test.
