What did you do to your car today?

More of a general "over the last few weeks" post.

Got the car serviced and checked for any potential mechanical failures in preparation for NCT - coming this Friday 🤢

New tyre fitted for the front right and tyres removed from the blitzen wheels I got in preparation for refurb and painting, probably going matte bronze with a touch of gold in it.

Ordered a new rear wiper motor from England (Nippon Auto Spares), hopefully it'll come either today or tomorrow and that it's easy fitting. If it doesn't, I can only pray that it doesn't get checked.

Driver's side fog light housing and subsequently the fog light is filled with water, so the best method of taking that box and fog light out would be appreciated 👍.

Quote on paint came in as well, so saving is required 🤣


NCT test is for wipers on the windscreen ONLY is the way it should be as in the NCT tester manual on page 58,best of luck with it :thumbsup:

New front springs, Discs, braided lines and Pads on the Legacy last Friday in preparation forthe Historics in Killarney, I had her out as a course car, and the brakes were rubbish. Big improvement with EBC Yellows.

Cleaned up the glass inside the car and taped down plastic to keep the rain out. Goddamn storm. Roof tiles flew off, lucky at least that it's just the window and plastic trim, could have been worse. Oh the irony though, I had moved the car here to where i thought would be a safer spot. Would have been fine if it'd left it where it was.

Ahhh sh*t man. That's a bad buzz.
Could be much worse. But still rough. I'll keep an eye for one for parts
 
Ah that’s a dose after moving it 🤦‍♀️ storm was bad enough in places . Shouldn’t be too expensive to replace think around 200 for a new 1 fitted
