Ok, it goes like this.
Friday, o poo, tax on Monday.
whilst looking 4 the mot i found out it ran out on Thursday (shussssh)
Whist checking it over yesterday i found 2 problems a small penny sized hole in the sill and a snapped spring.
So I went up the workshop 2 do the hole this morning and to my horror found the hole grew to about 7 inches long under the body kit.
Luckily I'm a fabricator by trade and made a real good job of replacing the outer, inner and strengthener and once it was filled and repainted it really did look better then a bought one.
i then went onto the spring.
i got a box of bits on eBay a few weeks ago and there was 4 good looking springs in there so i took the old 1s off and slapped them on. When the car was down on the floor, to my horror/ excitement the springs were 2" lower!!!! Wahoooooo
When driving it home i was to busy enjoying the improved handing to realise that I scrape my exhaust on my drive before it was lowered. When I turned into my drive my horror arose.... i got stuck.
o well looks like I'm hiring a pneumatic drill next weekend.
so come on then what MOT nightmares have we all had?
