So basically............
He drives it to work
Puts it on the ramp
Logs on to the system
Lifts the bonnet
Puts the kettle on
Goes for a dump
Makes a coffee
Gets boy to sit in motor
Puts the ramp up
Has a few slurps
Jacks it up *between slurps*
Brings it down
Ditch empty cup
Reverse's onto brake tester
Job done
Drive home
Crack a beer open
Have a laugh
Good luck

My brother-in-law the MOT tester will be taking the "LEMON" away for its yearly check-up on Thursday.
It has done a massive 1700 miles this year. I hope it passes, he's got 4 bottles of craft ale riding on it's success.
Wish me luck.
All the best for today

Good luck!
For my next MOT I have decided to bring down my bagpipes and play them outside the garage in the hope of distracting them a bit (yes I do have bagpipes, no, I cant play them)

Allegedly....Extremely low miles where did you find that motor
The previous owner was a millionaire and he just parked it up in his barn on his farm in Herts along with his Bently and his Ferrari.
As he was retired and spent all his time running his Golf Club and zooming about his estate on an ATV he decided he no longer needed the Rangie and punted it out via a specialist "unique cars" site.
I paid silly money for it because it was in showroom nick (idiot that I am). I was suspicious and did all the checks one can do on its provenance and it seemed genuine.
So far, so good. Usual age related niggles (head-lining and door-latch switches). Oil in the engine mysteriously stays really clean. No huge leaks anywhere. Rubber items here & there have perished.

Think outside, no box required.
Could of sworn I saw her for sale on car and classic in 2017.
She was a beaut..
But decided to buy the blue one 3 cars below!!
Whoops.
Looks like a nice motor from the pics I've seen..
She also has Rowan Cherry Carpets and Piping IIRC.

Great news
We never expected any less from you really
One year when your exhaust does need doing you’ll find a back or mid box will suffer, front pipe is damn near indestructible but occasionally they blow an exhaust gasket that can be checked with a bit of tissue on a stick

I had that on the last one. Whenever you were stopped alongside the central reserve barriers in traffic the clattering noise was awful.Great news

I thought it was the concertina link between the 2 halves of the exhaust manifold and got a used one off e-bay. Only to find when swapping it over that the new one was definitely blown.
Put my old one back on with the gaskets from the S/H one and it was lovely and quiet.
