good luck you lot. mine is later this month and i've told him to fail it on the shocks so her indoors will let me get new ones. (suprising how these new shocks are 2 inches longer than the old ones)

Do you think if I told 'er indoors that it failed due to lack of mud exposure she would believe me?

Embarassingly there is NO mud on her whatsoever!
Will have to rectify that.

Failed BIG TIME lol 
- Nearside side repeater incorrect colour (my side repeater plastic cover is somewhere in local forest (lol)
- Nearside headlamp aim too high
- Offside headlamp aim too high
- Exhaust system mounting missing (rubber)
- Offside front brake binding
So except brakes it will be easy. Im just wondering, are lights aimed too high because of suspension lift?
And also few advisories..
- Nearside front wheel bearing has slight play
- Offside " " "
- Nearside front tyre worn close to the legal limit
- Non obligatory mirror damaged (lol, I would say missing)
- All brake pipes corroding
- Both rear tyres heavily perished
- Handbrake travel too long
So i would say £100-150 with MOT and another year of happy Green Laning
Oh, and car was MOTd for the last time 3 years ago and since then it was farm truck, so not so bad!

Yeah, already have got two tyres which needs fitting, plus I will need to replace brake lines later this month. But corrosion is really light, I wouldnt even mention. There is more corrosion on my bumper lol
