Glad you could sort it yourself 8) - My MOT on Wednesday.....I swear if they poke and scratch the underseal underneath the van again I'm going to get seriously pissed! (and also hope they also don't find a hole :shock: ) it's on their for a reason yet every MOT I have less underseal and more rusty scratches.....
 
well, i welded the hole, but i knew it might be 7-10 days before i could get on the pit at work. so all shulzted up, i took her back .the f$%&ng t$%t, made me remove the underseal and re-present her, so he can inspect the weld. reason ..i may have botched it with filler :shock: my reply ..which didn.t help the situation..she is a 41 year old classic vw that i carry my family in..why the $£^%&** would i put filler in the chassis you F%$£ng morron... :evil: so this morning i took her back and now have a 12 month ticket :D and this evening im now picking underseal out from under my fingernails. :cry: for the second time. still i must look on the brightside ,if he could-not find anything else wrong then she must be ticketyboo :mrgreen:..now i have haerd some real horror storys with regards to the so called restoration of these vans but i would have thought that by now this sort of thing had been stopped..i guess not ..so if there is anyone who,s reading this and thinking of buying a vw van then please if you dont know what to look for then take some one who does. :mrgreen:
