Aaron, firstly I think as we have only just over 2 months to Eurotech you must make transport arrangements, and secondly, make a complete list of what you think needs doing so we are prepared and we can bring with us the relavant spares. That way hopefully your travel arrangements will only have to be one way and you can drive it home.

As long as you don't park you don't need a handbrake though. Unless you want to pass an MOT! ;)

Handbrake is easy to adjust, mine works well now and it used to be totally useless. Another job I'm sure we can do.

callipers are seized or cables, jack it up and give them some wd 40 or similar and tap the arms with a copper mallet but gently does it TT

Aaron,

Have you got the car started and put in reverse?

Does it move at all?

We could always try and book you an MOT on the Saturday, so if we do manage to get it going you could drive it home.
