MOT is in march  :grin:

Yeah but what if you got it through it!  :shocked:

I have an interested party in the car whenever I sell it  :smug:

Does "the forum" count as an interested party?

Well i just filled it up from warning light on, £55 which is nice, and a lot less than the Passat.

Then attempted to give it a good hoovering out, and the garage hoover broke  :laugh:


No just everything else  :grin:

I know its early days shaun,

 but its quite enjoyable to drive, keeping it in the VERY narrow powerband is interesting  :shocked: :shocked:

and certainly holds its own thru the twisties and last minute.com into roundabouts  :evil:

and one the roll bar and brakes are sorted it can only get better . :wink:

Going back to small cars is always fun for a while.. .Like you say, early days, i'm sure there's plenty you can do to it to keep you entertained for a bit, with your history though you'll be moving on by the time the summer is out!  :grin:

I read it before somewhere but forget, what's the mileage?

142k, a mere pup compared to my passat of 180kness  :grin:

And this is the works runner, and due to the saving I got it for, so will be just that

however a toy can and will fit on the driveway, 3 cars fit so all is good  :wink:

I manage without one!  Ah come on, what's your bodywork skills like?  :grin:

OK I jest... just need help to speed things up, doing my head in how much things have slowed down since it got an MOT... Technically that was only the start!

MK2!....  :cool:  Be good to see you with a proper car again!  :laugh:
