Small update, Betty has passed her MOT. To get here through the following was needed:
- Rear disk and pads (Pagid OEM)
- 2 front tyres - vredestein ultrac sessanta
- 2 rears tyres - see below
Turns out one of my rear tyres needed changing as well, so the spare was fitted, thankfully the wheel was painted the same colour as the rest of the wheels.
The other rear tyre was still okay but with less tread that the new spare wheel. Luckily the other day a friend gave me a newish continental sport contact 3 he had spare, so this was fitted to the other rear wheel.Not overly happy about having odd tyres on the back, but it passed its MOT.
Thinking i might just buy another pirelli p zero for the rear at the end of the month. Ideally i'd like to buy another 2 x vredestein ultrac sessanta for the rear but i've got full service for the car at the end of the month, plus the OH's car need a full set of tyres and a full service... its just never ends!!!! lol
What with the coil pack and tax earlier in the month she cost me a far chunk of money this month....
On the plus side she feels lovely on new rubber, especially as the weather is good and the roads and nice and warm.
Hopefully over the next few months i can start concentrating on more interesting purchases for the car!
