took the car for its MOT today while son Lew is away ooop norf, had a good drive as well, straight through the mot, just have to change the headlamp bulbs as they werent quite sitting in their location slots, a couple of turns for the tracking and that was it,
had fun in the wet on the way home....just like being 18 again

met a guy at our garage who i havent seen for years, had a good chat, he once owned 2 RS1800s, locals will know who i mean

well lew, tax tomorrow and its all yours, have fun, change that exhaust tho son

glad to bring this bttt, went in for its MOT, flew straight through, well pleased for Lewis, this car is used every day as well
hes had some great enjoyment out of it through thick and thin, pretty good for a teenager driving an old car in todays world

only real headache throughout the year has been the exhaust, but since gary Ell has sorted it its been great.

roll on the brett simms worked cylinder head etc,
