The best mod I did to mine was weigh it in

I was just asked and explained why they were asking. Guess the bigger companies like sh*t sorry Kwik-Fit, National Tyres etc will have more paperwork but your mate in the back street garage who helps you will probably take asking as enough

I got asked this last year when my 406 went for it's MOT. It's because of the smog test and a fair few people have had belts snap during it and then claim from the Test station. It's becoming more and more common practice to save the test stations being responsible for snapping a cam belt and valves...

Will you be going to JDM Allstars when they return this year? It's something I want to get into (part of the reason for getting the BMW) whilst I build my 200sx

It was due its MOT at the end of the month and the cost of parts to get it through was more than the car was worth. I would have broke the car but I didn't have any where to do it

Well today the Love Pug went to the scrap yard, got sick of the lack of rear brakes, the fact that it decided to keep on vomiting out it's coolant, and about half a dozen other faults so yesterday, I found a BMW 316i ES on ebay, bid and won and drove to parents to collect it.
