Best I've managed is twice round the field.... major outing will be Thurs morning...{drum roll} MOT time.
Booked the day off in case there is post-fail fettling required ! 

If its not broken you are not trying hard enough....

We were down at Forrest Estate again on Saturday with Borders 4x4 club, great day out, they had set out 13 sections at the side of the fire roads. Some great wee bits and my first side of the road repairs, changing a the track rod (luckily someone has a spare in the back) and a quick tracking by eye. Seemed to work ok.

Need some decent weather now to find my clunk, fit new track rod and try and fit a snorkel.

Ross, i'll pull you out anyday!  ;D although if I get to see Saturdays pictures they may tell another story  :-[

Nope, It'll keep the original Reg. The only major replacement bits are all three doors and both wings so its still got all the points as far as VOSA are concerned.
