I got my car MOT'd yesterday and unfortunately we had a failure, it wasnt a failure of epic proportion though, just needed a new bottom ball joint so one trip to the local motor factors and twenty minutes later job done, woo woo!

I know the feeling mate mine went for one last week and it failed on emissions!

A new temp. sensor and some petrol treatment and on Sat. there it cruised it :D

You must be chuffed!

Yeah I suppose it could have been a lot worse than a ball joint!It was quite good as I was getting asked a lot of questions about the car and a lot of people saying I used to have a nova back in the day haha!
