Double Ouch den, our car cost quite a few hundred last year to fix some problems and thankfully this year it sailed through it's MOT.
Hopefully that will be your experience fingers crossed.

That does not look nice when read let me explain what I meant :) hopefully the money spent this year will pay off next year den. There I feel better now :) just needed to add that den.

Yes sadly when cars are older the expense becomes a bit more but as you say its better to do it now and hopefully because of that there will be less cost the following year.

I'd rather that, than the £1,400 bill I had for a new Starter motor, killed by the Clutch/Flywheel breaking down and fibres getting into the starter motor, and a new power steering pump.

Good grief that did cost you a arm and a leg Hom3r and that's not nice.

The main dealer wanted £1,500 just for the Clutch/Flywheel alone, so I went to a clutch place near me, they charged about £700.

I wish I could say this to my sister in law.

"It is better to keep your mouth shut and appear stupid than to open it and remove all doubt"

Note to self remain cool & silent and keep my whatever attitude as this makes her mad which makes it the perfect defense and after all why should I lower myself.

Rant now over :D

Thanks. He's had a stroke. He's in a bad way but at least he's alive which is more than I thought when I posted that first
