Just got my sons MK1 1.2htp through another MOT. Did front swing arms and console bushes. plus a few other ball joints while I was at it. Only advisories this year are front nearside tyre worn on edge and a slightly loose wing mirror glass. Not bad for a twenty year old car. Tyre is worn probably due to front bushes being shot plus had a slow puncture so may have been run soft. Will get alignment checked and maybe a new tyre. Very happy plus so is my son. He even got me a nice bottle of single malt as a thankyou.

Thanks to Pete for advice on console bolts etc.

Top news, well done.

Good result! We've got dad's X-reg in for test soon. I know it wants a spring, but we're sending it in anyway in case there's anything else lurking.

Great news. These just keep going.

My old one has been revived, and is doing a new owner a good turn.
