Default I managed to get an MOT for free ;)

I took the BMW Cabriolet in for it's first (with me owning it) MOT.
Passed without problem but meanwhile there was a 75 V6 Tourer sulking in the Garages compound bought at auction by a local trader, Gold and very clean

Problem, won't start so I went home to get my Testbook
Cam Sensor fault (probably intermittent)
The fuel filter had come undone (sorted that and the cars is now running)
Both Vis motors were duff
The Rad fan was duff.

I might put the trader out of his misery and take it off his hands though

Anyway, result happy mechanics and a free MOT for me, well I sort of earned it.

Back on line later busy at work at the mo and I have guests staying so online time is a bit limited this week due to drinking too much alcohol most evenings

ttfn
