Mine was yesterday and it failed

Still, only some minor work on the suspension (requiring parts) and brakes (not requiring parts apparently), nothing structural (and too expensive) the garage reckon about £400 to sort.

Not as bad as I feared but worse than I'd hoped

 

[OLIVE-BAY]

oh well at least it'll be ready for the summer :rocknroll:

Failed today ....

Gasket on upper front suspension balljoint thingy

+ a few minimal advisories

As with a pass .... result necessitates a drink

Had a call from the garage last night and the brakes do need parts, final quote £578 :shock: :shock: :shock:

I'm trying to tell myself that if I had a normal, boring, modern car that it'd probably have cost a lot more :lol:
