There was something on facebook saying they just need to 'top up the meter'

Wasn't halfords actually fined heavily for making up work following MOTs?

Bit harsh seeming people are just trying to help one way or another... In Think people were just trying to help to ensure you weren't driving around in an illegal car, with any confusion or not! In terms of the emissions, get a print out and upload it and go from there

If it failed emissions yet has an a mot, its not really any different than a person putting a cat on for a mot then taking it off. Just failing on emissions id carry on driving it, as long as thats the extent of it

Not sure how that would fall into a car not being road legal tbh, depends on the person who spots it i imagine. Take the police round Gloucester, they are pretty dam laid back

Emissions isnt something that is likely to be tested at the side of the road really so be hard to prove its not road legal. If it had bald tyres. suspension arms hanging off etc that is a different story

Mate thats off the GOV website

Well no, theres a difference between having a MOT and a car being road legal!

Was pretty sure this wasn't true, gov website confirms Driving a vehicle that’s failed You can take your vehicle away if your MOT certificate is still valid

Stock suspension they look shit and handle shit lol....Coilovers and decent brake setup so much better than engine work

They are better than a non magnetic one

DS2500 be worth the extra. EBC stuff never seems to be that great. I had greenstuff on a starlet and probably the worst pad ive ever experience. Sometimes the thing that makes the biggest difference to calipers is making sure the sliders are properly greased up and and all the seals are in top condition

Maybe worth cutting your losses and selling it on. Unfortunately rust and engine work are two things you can't cheap out on. Get the rust sorted properly and should get through a MOT. Can at least drive it then

If you have too change valve guides, personally i would rebuild the whole engine while the heads off. Rust is a pain, most mot garages will just do a bodge job fixing it. Youll need it properly cut out and replaced with some decent preventative actions on it.

What's wrong with That? It's a listed as universal harness bar. Not one for a starlet

260bhp at 1.5 bar seems low. Or is that at the wheels?

Seems to be common

So true on the weight needed at the rear

Most cars I've had need the dash light to work to charge. But can't say for sure on a starlet

the thing is...i've seen much much worse videos

Cool little car! Video has tempted me!! But yeh... what a plank driving it. Ticking all the cliches of the list lol

Bitcoin has value now because its a good place to invest REAL MONEY, for people to get more REAL MONEY out of it. I bet most people have bought into it to sell the bitcoins at a profit than to actually use them

Someone invented bitcoin....someone has the ability to crash it.I also think people are very very naive to think there is no interference anywhere There is no value to it...its all speculative hence the reason it shot up so fast. People are buying it as an investment not as a currency. The same as buying a nissan GTR because they will go up in value, but you wouldnt try and buy your weekly shop in GTRs.

I did put 'was'. Still against the point, sterling was developed against something of value. It's built up that strength and now has no real risk of every dropping off face of the earth (within a reasonable time). It's not like you can go into a shop and they refuse to take sterling...most places even take sterling abroad!!

It doesnt really have any value. The value has come about by demand. Think of it like a shitty pointless jdm optional extra,deep down its worth bugger all but the demand is there to put the value up.Far more likely to come crashing down than the pound etc
