The Classic plastic hatchback passed the MOT this time.  :)
congratulations commiserations on the MOT pass
guess that means you have to keep it another 12 months  :'(
but being French, after Thursday you will have to put Frenchy in lockdown and use the Omega  ;D

Doctor Gollum

At this rate, it'll get another six months ticket... ::)

Is his keeping it part of the Brexit negotiations ::) :D

Took wifey's car for service and MOT. Courtesy car was a Corsa 1.2 sri premium turbo. Nippy enough but someone had fitted a third pedal to it and it made funny, jerky movements when I forgot to press it at the lights.  ;D

Found and fixed the source of burning oil on the ex-plod (old degraded loom tape had soaked up some oil and dropped onto the manifold). Then fitted new wiper linkage to my mate's vaJazzle. A productive afternoon!
Servicing and repairs done in NE. Special rates for OOFers! PM me.

Doctor Gollum

Cleaned the interior and knocked some of the leaf mulch off the outside.

 Took the Navara for MOT today. Failed and then spent £349 on it to get a pass :-[

Rangie

Gave the Subaru a much needed wash & cleaned the inside thoroughly, looked great after a couple of hours spent on it have asked SWMBO if she wants something different but she says not quite happy to keep it.
Never argue with stupid people, they will drag you down to their level & beat you with their experience.

Doctor Gollum

"not quite happy" is hardly a ringing endorsement  ;D

Lent the V70 to step daughter as her Meriva is broken..........again! :-X

I did tell her so DG.........she's a female didn't listen ::) She says heater went cold there was a puff of smoke and when she pulled up at a roundabout the engine just stopped and wouldn't re-start.There's coolant in header tank and oil in sump[but not mixed] and from what she told me the RAC recovery guy said the engine seems to be spinning over "too fast". I suppose I'll get roped in somewhere along the line.Good job I don't need the V70 just now :-X

Washed both of them as a treat. Plastic French thing for getting a years ticket for only £12 above the MOT fee, and the Omega for behaving perfectly again once I found the duff coil pack.
My "to do list" on both cars is now actually quite short. Although the Omega one is going to cost a few quid. New front discs and a pair of tyres. ::)
Its weird being the same age as old people !
