[badboy]

well i had my MOT today and it failed on 2 things :eek:

First was the boot where the Towbar bolts to the floor pan and second was where some idiot who had the car before me jacked it up under the sill not on the jacking point and pushed the floor up :mad:

so apart from that it flew through :D and all i did was change the wipers and bulbs , not bad at all

so going to do the failures on Friday so will take some piccys of before and after :)
