The car has come in for a service and MOT work.
Graeme has been working on the rear sub-frame, overhauling the brakes and drive shafts. This is now complete and ready for fitting back onto the car. The sump was off for repair to damaged sump bung threads which has been completed.

The front suspension joints are undergoing replacement and this has thrown up a quality control issue with the new spare parts which our suppliers are currently trying to rectify. The problem we highlighted has caused them to reject the new batch of these parts as well as the batch ours came from. Quality control of new parts continues to be a problem for some makes of older cars.
