My D passed its MOT today

Postby Dave M » Fri Mar 23, 2018 8:02 pm

As some of you know I went over to Dublin and bought the D that was on “donedeal” these last few months have been a nightmare regarding doing all kinds of jobs from washer bottle to handbrake - from fog light switch to CV boots but today it passed its MOT - ok it needs the handbrake looking at ( keep a block paver in the boot ) and a small patch welded on front part of chassis and a new steering rack ! but he passed it - must be honest he was very lenient- he asked me if I was planning on selling it before he commenced the test - now I just need to register it with the DVLA and put my cherished plate on it - a big thank you to Arran for sending me my parts next day ( fantastic service ) and Stuart Rees for traveling 40 miles over the prescelli mountains for something like 5 Sunday’s to get the car ready.
