Car back from MOT

Post by 1litreheater »

Just got my car back from its MOT and £270 later im ready to take it on a nice sunday drive to see how she goes !

Problems were mainly the handbrake which was only 3 % effective so they had to weild it at the bottom and new cable etc !

Neways quite a pointless post but iv nothing else to do !

Look out for me in northampton area !
