red5 Posted October 29, 2015 Author Share Posted October 29, 2015 It's an absolute dodle to drive, completely neutral. Might even throw it it for an MoT. ** Edit - have taken it for MoT ** Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

red5 Posted October 29, 2015 Author Share Posted October 29, 2015 ** Fail Alert ** Brake pads, 1x brake pipe. Welding. Exhaust flange gasket (By the book MoT though - I know the tester) Bugger. So, impending arrival of red5 no.2 (literally impending) means that this is now sale or scrap. MoT still valid (yes, yes) until Feb 23rd 2016. none of it is drastic, just something I have literally no time for. £100 takes it. Must be asap please.
