HI Guys

I've just picked her up from the test centre.....Total damage for work and MOT test £380.....not too bad for a car that's coming p to 12 years old.....

she needed.....

The usual rear coil springs, both snapped right on the ends ( big sandwich box in the boot ) lol

Front Suspension arm excessive play in ball joint ( replaced with new BMW one )

Front brakes.....( Discs and pads )

So overall not too bad ......still need to look at the reverse light switch, will do that this weekend while at work :)

So now i need to tax her....£205 then sort out a new clutch....( awaiting price for that maybe a trip down to Birmingham )....so anyone know anyone who wants to buy a kidney....lol

Cheers Guys.....this is truly the best forum in the world......unless one exists called

"pillow fights for 20 year old blonde super models in lingerie"
but even then it would be a close call.......



Sorry for hte excess use of full stops.....Its just i never used them at school when i was younger so im making up for it now....LOL.... ,

We paid that to get our ZT through MOT but it was for MOT, service and repair, the repair was a faulty part put on last year after she had a front end shunt. So now we're getting the money back from old insurance company for parts and labour to sort the repair out :discostu:

Hi was that price for all the parts and fitted? if so thats not a bad price at all, i tested mine last week but noticed when i was adjusting the handbrake my springs had snapped (one) so replaced them before the test, i will be looking at them well before the next test just in-case, Steve

Really liked your post. Nice to have someone with a sense of humour from time to time.

Only thing I would change is the pillow fight bit. To get on the forum you would first have to fight two naked blondes in a mud bath !!
