Ok...my mood is wrecked for the rest of the week. It failed the MOT miserably..(which I could see coming), but the worst part is where the mechanic started saying that it's a waste of money to try and get it back in good shape. I know that it's a money pit, but hearing this guy's opinion didnt help out much.
A short list of immediate problems: -the exhaust (always has been a problem). -the brakes: I cant get the air out of my system no matter how hard I try bleeding them. The pedal just stays soggy. Parking brake cables are stretched and dont work well enough any more. -tires (have plenty of those) -rear stabiliser mounting point on the right is loose (broken bolt, have had this for a while). That's all they bothered to look at...they didnt charge me for the check-up either (he said they felt like they should be giving me some money if I want to get it fixed up). I'm so fucking depressed...I know that much worse cars have been restored by some of you guys, but my hopes for keeping it on the road on the short term are a bit broken. FABRICA MI DIEM, PVNC! |
