206cc to a 308cc How ? Why ? Everything 308cc

So from this August your car will be photographed during the MOT , what the heck is going on ...

... provides additional evidence that a vehicle was present at the garage at the time of its test.

Think this is the main thing, instances of extremely dodgy MOTs where the car "subject to the inspection" hadn't actually ever been on the tester's ramp!

Wonder what the photo bomb ones will look like just wondering if it's got anything to do with a spray you can buy that stops the speed cameras getting a photo of your number plate ?

Just imagine if Evri took over the job of carrying out MoTs. They could do as they currently do for parcels: take a photo of your car on a random MoT ramp somewhere and you have to guess/deduce which garage the car is actually in...

And then, at the end of every month, all their 'lost' cars end up at a boot sale somewhere - all with 12 months' MoT...

Don't forget them parcels they throw around , just picture all these cars being tossed up your front pathway and landing on the roof of the neighbours house or someone's swimming pool

So what i thought was just one hanger snapped off turned out to be both on the rear box so ive cleaned up the area aswell and sprayed some stone chip
Undone the nuts with the rattle gun , less likely to snap as its fast , cut the old rubber bits off there exhaust bits and its all clean and ready for when the 2 new ones arrived Monday. I've also repaired the hear shield too as we all know how these can fail don't we.....

[MattBLancs]

Caught just in time there Husky - are you cleaning up and treating the full length of that, err, chassis leg section?

I'd give those threaded studs a good wire brush then there's less muck and corrosion for the nut to ride over/through

[Huskyxantia]

Oh yes there all clean now I will get more afrer shots after these new hangers have been fitted just waiting on the courier. I have wire wheeled lots of surface rust too . I've sprayed plus gas over the bolt threads so when the hangers are put back on the nuts will go on nicely
