MOT tomorrow !
« on: 06 December 2007, 20:58 »
Got the dreaded MOT tomorrow, had a precautionary last year for rear axle bushes and brake flexi hoses. Fingers crossed it aint much more, expensive time of year for a man with two kids !!  :rolleyes:

No other problems to report !!  :smiley:
Rear wheel bearings slightly loose, which he will tighten when doing the bushes.
