So this failed it's MOT... on a lot.

Nothing too bad and he said it looks solid underneath. The exhaust has apparently ripped a hanger away causing it to blow (had no idea, didn't seem to get louder to me) and to be not correctly supported. It's not a massive issue, they said they'll weld it up. The bigger issue is it's still going to be be too loud...

   

So I'm going to stick the standard one back on.

Then there's brakes, apparently there's "severe brake shudder" on the O/S/R, which you can't feel whilst driving. So I've ordered Mintex discs and 1144's all around, was planning an overhaul anyway so this was a good excuse. Hopefully they'll be here by the weekend... Found them pretty cheap too. Will also refresh the fluid while I'm there and probably do the service.

There was a load of other little things, which for the most part I know about. I was just convinced it would fail so didn't care.

Anyway, boring I know, but should be an easy 12 more months on the road
