Mine is drawing closer too. Looking forward to it as hopefully they give the car a good going over and sort the brakes, not looking forward to the price

The month mine had it's MOT, Service, Cambelt & Tensioners and Water Pump I spent just over £1200.

Needed discs and pads, exhaust bracket re-welding and the brake fluid done.

Brake fluid was included in the price, £220 for the service & £340 for the rest.

The discs & pads are next on my list, 280mm up front & standard on the back. A friend of mine has some carriers of a VW Corrado G60 for £20.

That will do nicely for me :D

I only drove my car for about three days after lowering before it went in to have the headlights re-adjusted. I could not see a damned thing before they got altered! :roll:

Mine are like that at the moment, and it's dangerous at 60+ mph when dark, I really must get it sorted.
