Your fleet running reports
Re: Your fleet running reports
Changed the rear bearing on the Mito, solved the noise. Took it for its MOT and it passed but the tester told me to put my hand on the front spring whilst he turned the wheel - could feel it vibrating. Said to change the top mounts for next time. So not a pass with flying colours.
On the way back I got stuck in a big traffic jam. The roads were blocked off by white supremacist protesters I think. Or burglars.

How about not having a sig at all?

Re: Your fleet running reports
The plastic topmounts are pretty crappy, but cheap and easy enough to change with some spring compressors. One of those parts that’s shared with the corsa and punto.
Unfortunately I don’t think there’s an upgrade unless you spend a load on solid alloy ones which wouldn’t be worth it unless you’re making a full on trackday car.

Yes not much choice out there. Perhaps finally time for some lowering springs

Listed the Up on Motorway. Despite the scratch on the bumper (more on that below) the reserve was set at £7500. As I was planning to list it at £7900, it's due a service soon, plus the scratch....I reckon it's about right, as there are dealer cars for sale for £8k with similar mileage, but I doubt they're as clean as mine is (despite the scratch). I can collect the Honda E from the 12th, so it'll make things easier.
Does kinda hurt me giving it to Motorway, given how well it's been looked after, but I'm not sure I've got the time/energy to deal with private buyers for a car like this. You can all regale me with tails of woe about how Motorway traders have fucked you over on the day of collection if you want to.
Re: Scratch, I bought some of this "Chipex" stuff to avoid paying £300 to repair it. Alas, it didn't work. Tried many methods, but it just didn't seem to improve it at all. Even on stone chips, it seemed to pull it away, so not overly impressed but may also be our heavy-handedness, so YMMV.
As for the Evora, it's not moved in 2 weeks due to holidays, house stuff, VW/Honda shenanigans. Stereo still not been refitted properly, so CTEK to putting in a shift on the battery. I've managed to fit it snugly into the garage after a clear out. @mik I got the PPF, so many thanks.....probably be about 12 months before I get around to fitting it
