The 2.8 has just been dropped off at the MOT station and will be going into the workshop at 10.15 for its check up.

I have now got that agonising 1 hour wait...... :? :? :?

Thanks guys for your wishes and after a tense nail biting hour...... :?

She passed! :dance: :dance: :dance:

Did get a couple of advisories though..

Offside front upper anti roll bar linkage slight play

Offside rear shock slight misting of oil

Front brakes only just met imbalance requirements....

........and there you have it.

Kel - did you get any circlips for the lockers - if you have and want to bring the gear up 2moz, I'll chuck the required tools in the motor and we can fit them if you like. Let me know if you want me to bring the tools.
