Car passed MOT yesterday, done around 230-240 miles on new engine now, so dropping oil in the morning, fixing the horn that's now decided to stop working, though the switch is ok, I was fiddling around the area of the horn so may have dislodged a wire without noticing.
No advisories, other than "get a proper car" from the garage owner ha ha!!
Engine not missed a beat, used no oil, doing between 28-32mpg quick calc so well pleased, a lot more pleased than the cost of topping up today £65!! ow that hurt, but no petrol on the floor of the garage now that I made a new tank breather.
Getting used to the new noises from the other cars I've been driving, noticing wind noise from sunroof that I don't remember.
Took sat nav out to see how far speedo was out with 225/45x17 instead of the 205/50x15, and it's spot on certainly up to legal speeds, pure luck but that is going to change when I swap to a 3.9 diff.
Still got coilys to sort(seized) so I can lift front to clear tyres so I can fit my front wheels.
