MoT passed although a couple of advisories. Track rod is apparently a tad loose. It isn't that old and it was Lemforder. Disappointing.

There is one of those newish MG SUV type things around here and the owner has bought all the individual letters to spell out M O R R I S G A R A G E S across the bonnet. That's a lot of letters, goes almost edge to edge across it.

New bushes me thinks!!! ;)

And we still keep coming back:stars:

Brilliant answer ☝️😎👍

That we’ve been here too long 😱

U - cut the top off O P - cut leg off R I - cut arms off E All the other letters are there

So how do you get twæt fûck from bmw🫣😜

Remember Captain Slows saying..... If you take Audi, swap the letters around, and change a couple, you get C***

Piiiiiiccccctttttures please😜

She is back and looking lovely. 2 doors done, bumper (where some git hit here when I wasn't there), mirror casings buffed up, but will need painying methinks, one wheel rubbed back and sprayed, Pretty girl is pretty again. There are a few bits...

Well after giving me the run around for a few days I think I've got to the bottom of it. I swapped out my valve block for a re-furbed one I had on the shelf, and also cleaned up and renewed the o rings on the drier that I observed bubbling with...

Tis great to see two lovers reunite:vb-bouncy2::vb-hearts:

Nice to see her back with you. 😁💖

"sigh". Buyers remorse, sellers remorse.. Really did miss this old beast, coincidentally new owner couldn't get on with the old beast, something about 12mpg........ :confused: Negotiated a deal and picked her back up. absolutely filthy...

Thank you. 😁 I prefer to fix any issues as soon as possible. Costs less in the long run and hopefully will keep her going. She was showing a weird issue in the paintwork. It looked like someone had run a wheel with shallow spikes over partof...

I would buy that car off someone like yourself girl. The amount of attention it gets is way more than a lot of clients and their cars I deal with. 😊

Dropped the Golden Girl off a the plastic surgeon's 😉 Work has already started

Thank you all.....I'll check to see if there even is a cable coming out of the gearbox.....I'll wait until the pesky rain stop!

The filler was similar to silicon when dry, rubbery and prone to peeling rather than feathering out like body filler, pita but got it satisfactory eventually. First coat of black dye.

Filler surprisingly goes a long way. First pass, letting that go off, then another layer on the deeper damage, then the dyeing bit. Hopefully there's enough black dye to change the colour from cream.

Steering wheel restoration kit arrived yesterday so set to. that dark stuff that I assumed was the finish wearing off was infact grime. The alcohol cleaner in the kit barely touched it and there would be no where near enough anyway to do all...

I just tighten the crank bolt with my wrench that is limited to 240 NM , i gave a little more , about 20 °, as the torque should be 270 NM ...should be OK .

Based on my own experience ('87 3.5efi) failure of the odometer is a prelude to the speedo itself developing a very 'wavy' needle, which will result in MOT failure when the time comes. I've attempted to have mine repaired but the specialist was...

For a stress free life, forget the EKA, turn it and the immobiliser off then you will never need iEKA and can use the key blade if the FOB doesn't work.

9 litres for the diesel.

You use the standard diesel torque converter.

He's been in New Zealand for quite a while now

Before I went on holiday I said I was going down route of 1 tyre onto fubared one of old set. Guess what I lied. Going through the bay of E a tyre place not 3 miles away had 2 excellent Michelin Synchrone tyres the correct size with free fitting...
