[big_gordy]

dont have the report on me i got that of the web for my mot

needing parts quickly & help as he wants £300 incl mot!!!

[craigyboy]

mate you should have at least have fixed the back bumper
and registration plate before the MOT

[big_gordy]

was told they would secure it BEFORE the test

[vec 160]

Wire brush the ferrules and paint them with hammerite.
Get the flexi replaced and this will sort out the lambda and make sure the car has had an oil and air filter change and stick some cat a clean in the fuel tank to sort out the emissions problems. As for the lights, they may require some adjustment
