well the car passed today. they managed to do the test yesterday. it failed on the rear brake pipe's which i knew about and asked the garage to replace. my headlight bulb's were the wrong colour and the washer pump had blocked up. not bad considering it's been laid up for 4 yr's!!

just gotta tax it now!!


roll on thursday!
