I hope I don't have to pay much more.... On the other hand, it will be worth it or piece of mind, if nothing else.

It was a major op!

I've postponed the cambelt change ( fingers crossed) and just got the MOT, 60,000 mile service and brake discs/ pads/ fluid renewed. A grand total of.....

£485.71!

Recommendation at 50 thou service (in March) was to replace rear discs (corroded). Good policy to replace pads at same time. It seemed like a good idea to also replace the front at the same time, regardless of wear.

The cambelt/ waterpump will be done mid January (after payday) due to christmas being a major financial onslaught. What's another 1,000-1,500 miles....
