Good to put a car to the name, nice storm grey, those interior bits must have taken some sourcing!!!

Yeah, let's just say that once I see an OEM part I like i kinda get obsessed in tracking them down.

Well sweet FA has happened to the car recently but last night it suddenly dawned on me that I only had a few days left on the MOT so luckily enough I managed to track a slot down in a Renault dealership of the places for the bargain price of £24.
Absolutely sod all prep work or checks were done and car was bloody filthy as well so iI was expecting the MOT tester to annilate it tbh... Low and behold an hour later I'm holding a pass certificate. 

Just a few advisories which included issues I already knew about.

Both rear wheel bearings have slight play.  (they were replaced last year and simply need adjusting)
Centre exhaust support bracket is broken but still doing its job.  (I've already got another one ready to fit in the shed)

Best news of all though -  NO ROT ISSUES!!

Not much has happened since I broke my shoulder 2 weeks ago but the boredom got the better of me coupled with the great weather so I thought I'd stick the 20mm wheel spacers I bought ages ago on the rear.
They've helped to fill the arches nicely although some arch rolling will be required some time very soon as they rub very slightly over larger bumps in the road.
I did attempt to do this today but the arch roller I made before I was made redundant isn't quite right so will need some modifications before it can be utilised which is extremely inconvenient.
