Not really....Just needs the tracking sorting, as the drivers side front wheel is catching on the arch at the front when its on full left lock (its catching where the spoiler part is) And thats it :cheers: :cheers: Well chuffed :cheers: :cheers:

Its a bit of bad news , turns out it wasnt the tracking that was out and the tyre wasnt rubbing where i thought it was , it was rubbing on the inner wing on the rail that goes across it ( the one with the holes in it) and it was because it was running 205 tyres, so ive had to buy 4 brand new tyres (yokohama's)

The last owner owned his own garage and was an mot tester so thats why it must have got away with the rubbing for all them years...lol

I could have put my capri ones on to get it through but i allways thought that the 205's looked liked over inflated balloons , so ive gone for 185/60/13's

so works out quite an expensive MOT

used to run 205's on my old mex a long time ago (Colway ones with the P6 pattern) Only place they ever caught was the rear arches when going over bumps at stupid speeds................
