Christ, I'd hate to meet you in a court of law.
Have you ever thought about a change of career?

Well you never will as my name ain't Gerry Breadvan.

This is the most important paragraph:

If you cannot tell which the repair method, you should accept the repair and tell the vehicle presenter.

And that shows a massive limitation of the MOT test - as those that found chicken wire, Isopon, fibreglass or rolled up copies of Razzle under a heavy coat of underseal will tell you.

Get with the times, you missed out expanding foam!

Getting closer. A lack of side door on the drivers side meant I had to improvise as no access for clamps. I'm sure there's a trolley jack somewhere but two bits of random wood, friction and a hammer did the job.

That took a bit of doing with the old angle grinder. Half an hour out my life I won't get back. Looks like it's down to me now to get a bit of paint on it too so going to blather it in stone chip I think and get rid of the black tide mark.

Another go. Good job I was doing my best Michael Jackson impression earlier or that would have been a different story.

Another mini car meet. No photo of the other but same Noble as last time and another in blue
The baby Toyota had a full on Cozzy install and the pickup had a centrifugal type charger fitted, like the BMW straight 6 wasn't enough?
The Volvo brick is owned by a local lad we met at Shelsley. 130k diesel and very straight. He's just started chasing bhp so it'll be interesting how that progresses.

I do like Nobles

[LynehamHerc]

The prize?

Or Noble the car?
