my tug failed it's mot. emissions and offside lower front suspension ball joint. only just over the limit on emissions so going to take it for a good run and keep the revs nice and high before i take it around to get re-tested. i think the problem is it has just been in town for a couple of weeks and never really has a chance to warm up or rev high. might have to replace the cat it if it doesn't pass the re-test on wednesday after they replace the ball joint. fingers crossed though!
Wouldn't be fun if it was easy, but does it have to be this much fun?

Took it out in the snow and black ice, first time in ages (since the bad weather arrived) taking it to the garage to be left there for the MOT.
