MOT is clean... 👍 🚙💨

^ ^ ^ ...... Always suspicious of Torque/Gbox health equation, when it's 'hopped up' 🤔. 🚙💨

Ha Ha..... Precissimmo 😉 My WVM Pug had A/C.... Froze me and generated savage 'cotton mouth'🤪.... Drove with the pass window 1" down to 'bleed away chilled air' = seems pointless 🙄. SWMBO deffo 'not happy', being baked in SuziQ.... A/C firmly top of her purchase agenda with MrGetz... We Will See... 🚙💨

Summertime just round the corner..... My 'it WAS on the day I bought it' non-functioning A/C needs looking at 😯.... He's dropping into my street 11am tomorrow... No Charge pre-check. Getz are notorious for degassing at the 'rubber pipe ferrule' onto the compressor... We will see how it goes (hopefully not IN & straight OUT 🤣🤣). 🚙💨

Jeezeee..... Normally keeping a look-out for pheasants, kamikaze traffic dodging.... Always warmed by the sight of big, fat hens scratching around in the grass margins... when passing farms.... TODAY 🙀 .... Was truly a Red Letter Day 🤪 .... Zipping along, coming into the back of Morpeth along by the golf course, I make a nice neat slice on a blind left >> tracing the white margin line, no drama >> lo and behold an ffinn HERON is standing on the very verge... Like a statue, unblinking... I slotted past... Very Impressive 😎 🚙💨

I still can't get past my own 'smokey mountain high' front calipers 😵‍💫.... Both locking 'out', almost within weeks, and Fleebay scrappers [from older m/y] sourced around £25.... Working GR9 🤪 🚙💨

I had a new front pipe fitted @ATS Wallsend, to my ToMM© Carina II. It thrubbed and blew, so it went back.... Canny lads, reckoned the clamping studs were karrkedd and set about remedial actions..... Gas 'to cherry' got the old studs out, new studs in & reclamp + gasket/washers... About an hour and a half = no charge 👍 To be quite fair, all round, they agreed they shouldn't have attempted the fit... with the studs as raggy... Fair Doos 2 them 😎 🚙💨

Interesting read, the Dolly MOT.... Mmmm Red 😉 🚙💨

MrGetz jostling with other 'runners n riders' @Gosforth MacciD... 🚙💨

Misremembered likely..... 🚙💨

I brayyed a replacement bearing onto our MK3 Cortina axle.... Completely forgot the retainer plate 😱 = simply hacksawed across the opposite corners & added two washers over the split.... I wouldn't forget next time..... If ever 🤣🤣 GR9 Mottah 🚙💨

These late Rootes IMPs are poor steel/poor paint, from earlier shells. Salty 🚙💨

But, to do it with 'style!'.... 🚙💨

We cruised past an early 60s Zodiac, up the A1 by Morpeth 😁 * only vehicle I passed all day, I'm a rivet counter about @55 (... The M.P. Geez, M9) 🚙💨

GR9 👍 'its a pile of fraud $hite' = LOVE IT (... It's not a tattoo = you can change your mind 🤣🤣) Tinkering brings you closer (... says SWMBO 😁) 🚙💨

Slightly*off topic... Isn't there a ghastly Nissan with similar axe cuts 🙄 🚙💨

@loserone.. well, today, MrGetz got a run through the Brushes of Doom and emerged with no noticeable increase in paint defects 👍. As he's so *shiny/glazing unmuddied, I went into StikkaMode 😎.... 2k more until oil + filter is due.... The kind contribution of an AdBloo drum will make that a <🙀> less messy enterprise ✔️ Cheers M9 🚙💨

Is there room to wrap a 'chain strap' oil filter onto the end.... Harder you pull >>> more it grips 🤔 🚙💨

Down detector confirmation on my phone... 🚙💨

Go '50s LeMans' = wire the nuts 👍😉 🚙💨

TPS.. 🤔 🚙💨

... of precious metals 🚙💨

Rallying videos opinions vary 🤔

When I see BMW powered imps I get a yen for my Pocket Rocket...rip 884KOE. 🚙💨

@DirtyDaily... My Hero *Standing in my toasty kitchen... Nice Mottah M9 👍 🚙💨
