Well today was the day! It went for its mot and unfortunately failed It did suprisingly well it failed on a few bulbs out ( bad earths) a bald tyre (had a spare to be fitted) and one of the brake hoses were leaking Really not that bad at all seeing as we have owned the car for over a year and it only started up for the first time 2 weeks ago Hopefully we could have an mot on it mid week

Oh yeah the car did very well My dad got a set of front brake hoses order'd we changed the one that was damaged Unfortunately I realised that the front brakes have been filled with silicone brake fluid so we ran down to the local motor factors that had to order some The fluid will be ready to collect tomorrow so hopefully by tomorrow we will be able to take the car for its first drive

Not much has happend since the mot We had the new engine turn up for it today! We have gone from the std 875cc 35hp lump used to get the car through its mot to an 1120cc 90hp lump (r17 cam lightly ported and with one size up from sport exhaust valves) The engine won't be fitted right away we have decided to pull the suspension off and get it powder coated And it will get built up for next spring
