well it's stopped raining ....

... and have just over 1 1/2 hours to my first MOT.

Cancelled from yesterday as I managed to get about 20 m down the road before the engine died. I had reject ed the carbs so am hoping that was the problem - back to original jets.

First drive since the engine blew up over a year ago hmmmmm........

... but then it started again as I drove to MOT garage but no too heavy.


.... and was nice and sunny as I drove back, with my first MOT - woo hoo .... but then why would it not pass, other than the sticky main/side lamp lever that stays on when not used for a long time, everything is new or recon, 567 miles

days like this take me one step closer to selling - no roof or windscreen is not very practical, BMW Z4 perhaps .....
