Real MOT Tomorrow

We've decided to drive the car back home so some more money has been spent to repair certain things and a MOT booked in for tomorrow morning. Pretty much everything that was found faulty in Aprils MOT has been rectified, some not so. So it's hit & miss if it will pass first go.
I had already put new brake pads on the front last Tuesday, this morning I did the rears which kind of went ok -ish.
Found that the end pipe before the axle bend in the exhaust looks a bit dodgy so wasn't tempted to push a screwdriver in to it.

Old rear pads: (remember car has stood for a while so discs are a bit rusty)


Also paid a visit to the local Halfords today, went in for one thing came out without it and bought two other things instead.
An emergency light bulb kit which is needed to be carried in the car when traveling on mainland Europe and a 4 way power thing from the lighter socket.
Its 4 way and switched plus it has blue LEDs! Bargain at a fiver.


Last Tuesday the official event car stickers turned up, it was one of those odd sunny/raining days so couldn't really apply them. Plus family stuff and doing the front brake it was about midnight before I got the first set on.
First applied was on the bonnet, along with one of Graeme's huuuuge Griffin stickers. These went on easy even though it was around midnight and outside under the light of one of those inspection lamps Lidl have recently been selling.

Next day in the daylight put a few more on, the door stickers were a sod to do and hence why they are so creased. The rest were mostly sponsor stickers from companies that have donated to the Noah's Ark Appeal or have helped us out in some way with equipment or bits.



Oh yeah, repainted the inner grill "antique white" and replaced the broken N/S headlight unit as the glass lens had shattered for some unknown reason.
