Who passed their MOT? :D

[suj]

yayyyyy.....so happy

had 2 advisory's
1) brake pads wearing low (which i knew)
2) brake line on O/S has wear on (when it was dropping on it's arse by previous owner)

well chuffed

and all for £30 and i could help out my uncle with more cars too (as i know how to MOT minus the license to lol)

another year of motoring!

PS my uncle is really strict as a MOT tester, so not much wrong, which shocked me lol

nope it is attached, by a m10 bolt, but is using one of my bumper holes lmao

just sent gtikezz a pm. do you know anything about her or the axle? i think the 16v and 8v use the same axle!

 

[suj]

yeah i know about her/her family, a few people on here do too, she loves MK2's, so much when she needs parts...she buys a breaking WHOLE car, then gets what she needs, then sells the rest, so we call her "mk2 breaker" lol

yeah i thought they are the same axle too, might need to ask flapper/mk2 guru's

 

[ather`s]

you got any numbers for her? as yet no answer on the pm! or give her a nudge and tell her to get in touch please as i would like the axle if its the right price! cheers for the info anyway
