[QUOTE="gvee, post: 500007, member: 14750"] Obligatory MOT certificate picture --> ...I forgot to take a photo :msn4: So yeah, it went to a different garage on Tuesday and sadly failed the test. It only failed on 2 things: headlamp alignment (one wasn't pointing quite right) and a binding brake. My dad, being the wonderful wizard that he is, fixed both these issues and got it retested the following day and it passed! Had to drop my daily in the garage again last night so used the bus to get to work this morning (I can't wait until I get my weekends back!). First 25 minutes of my commute were lovely. Now my clutch is playing silly buggers [again]. Ground it the remaining couple of miles and nearly dumped it in the disabled parking space when it wouldn't get in to reverse! Oh, and the oil pump I ordered for the new engine doesn't effing fit either :roll: Week of mixed emotions, that's for sure. Looking to change my upholstery inside: is anyone after some Westy, green, plaid material from a continental R&R bed? Not my cup of tea. Will take more photos soon. Promise :lol: [/QUOTE]
