She is booked in for her MOT tomorrow, i have done 21000 miles in the last year and she has only needed t tyres and a droplink.

If she passes with flying colours its new exhaust time.

If she fails, i will treat her to a new exhaust.

If she fails miserably then i will think about treating her to something.

**Posted:** Thu Mar 08, 2012 2:41 pm

i feel for you

why?

**Posted:** Thu Mar 08, 2012 3:14 pm

brake pads and lambda sensor.

I am just soaking the lambda my other Mazda to swap them over. £15 quid set of pads and £35 MOT. Pretty good for her being 13 years old.

I am a bit pissed though going through a set of pads in a year (21000 miles) Caliper refurb me thinks. Oh and new exhaust time for her too. Wee treat in order for her.

Have tried telling the wife to wash it but she struggled being 8 months pregnant and all :lol:

I bought the sebring off Ziggy and fitted it to the green f and then changed it over to the silver. Its really loud but the tone/note is lower

I was going to post his video found here

Sorry, no updates due to me having more babies.

I changed the upper front ZXi strut to this
[img]http://i494.photobucket.com/albums/rr305/swelch29/DSCF4192.jpg[/img]

Also got cheesed off with the rear badge so i changed it. I dont like it. It needs to be filled to make it look semi normal. My ideal want is front and back efini badges but i aint paying the asking price for them.

Got pissed off with the "M" badge, so changed to this: I dont like it still. De badge maybe i think unless it grows on me.

After switching from the 17's back to the original 15's and just turning 80k miles i decided to pack her bags and let go and visit a friend of mine.

She has been away for a week now.

Photos will follow when she is finished!

**Posted:** Tue Mar 26, 2013 9:51 pm

those 17's are very tasty, like TSW Venoms but not as popular

looking soooo good Mr Swelchy
