Currently feeding the highly esteemed collection compadre Mr @Jimbob McGregor who hasn't been breakfasted yet.  This is Tow Law at its finest.

Reports of a pre-booked MOT which may not actually be attended are being looked into.

 

A bit like these holes.

These tyres are only flat at the bottom, fortunately.

Good to see that @loserone is holding up the flag for shit old Renaults🤣

 

These meganes are lovely, and the 1.6 is a great engine.

Strange as the rest of the sills look solid, at least they look an easy fix 😉

Excellent work, I really like these. 

A certain Fife based Renault botherer may have parts if you're needing any, give him a shout

Fingers crossed! It's where they put bungs at the factory, the holes have just got bigger

The inner sill does look rather good other than lacking protection,

Looking very pleasant in the daylight

Quick pre MOT check:

It's hot.

And it tells the future.

First of all it was time for a run to @scaryoldcortina's.  Dropped a sproglet off at school.

Got some fuel on the way

Was spotted by someone else.

Arrived in good time and sent a message to let him know.

Went for a walk

Ooh, I could walk home.

Eventually Scary found his phones and came along shortly after lunch.

Some of the cars around here are mint.

Some have already featured in my fleet and this thread.PXL_20241217_122521377.jpg.945f7bcabe1daf8e3619da97c54a0ae7.jpgPXL_20241217_123241989.jpg.d501b6ce118705164767cf842bb804b2.jpg

Some look like they have been dragged from a hedge

And some need a tickle with the sparky stick.

Two neat little patches welded on, time for a test.

This brake pipe needs cleaning up a bit.  And there's some others.

This beautiful volcano is about as porous as it looks.

At some point just before the emissions test Andy noted some interesting* smell and we discovered the radiator fan seized up and smoking

Unplugged that quick and mid emissions test this happened.

Happily the test was nearly done so just held on for a moment and it passed.

 

Helpfully the car then flashed up it's temperature light.

Turned it off, finished the test, then let it cool down, topped it up and off home I head with a pass.  Woohoo!

More ups and downs than two blues and a bottle of red.
