grrr
MOT time again, failed again, something to do with the emmisions and misfiring, garage asid they would investigate and let me know, not heard a peep yet, if I phone them they will be all arsey with me. I just want a vague idea of cost and time as my finances are quite close to the bone.

When my car misfires it means spark plugs whihc last time cost me £11 but my BIL fitted them or who knows what it would have been.

Hope its nothing major with yours and they won't keep it too long.

tyhanks. spark plug sounds good, that would make me very happy.
they did call about 6.30 but said they still hadnt looked at it. I think they may have been a bit busy today, they have only had it since sat but we have had to borrow my grans car, mind you she wouldnt be driving in this anyway.

Any news?

yes thanks, i got it back today and it was nothing too major, mechanics have the same ability as builders to make you completly panic dont they?
