Black looks 8-) I'm so reluctant to give up the OEM steering wheel because it fits the inside of the car so well, but if I could find one like yours I'd be happy. Looks cool 8-)

Road legal for another Year

Post by Ammo » Tue Jul 12, 2011 5:51 pm

Did a bit of work on the lude that i'd been putting off as it's MOT was due

New BD Predator front pads and while I was doing that noticed that the offside steering rack gaiter was spilt so replaced that.

Stuck it in for it's MOT with it failed :cry: but luckily only on both rear ARB drop links and dodgy wiring on the nearside headlight.

Picked up some new ARB droplinks and H4 bulb connectors on the way home from the MOT and fitted them last night, took it for it's retest today and it passed :D

only got 2 advisories too, Exhaust hitting the heatshield (Fixed while I was under the car with a Hammer) and a perished Exhaust rubber mount

So not too bad for another years motoring :D

Steering wheel is a OMP corsica fake you can get em off ebay for £30 if your lucky

Old OEM discs they still have meat in them so no point spending money till they need replacing

Still bedding in the pads so I'll let you know how I get on
