this has always been shagged! wish i still had the mx5!!



the old one was fine until i fucked around with it to much, even then i fixed it


then i ripped the sideskirt off on a ramp a week after putting it back on the road which pushed me over the edge haha

Basic maintenance tbh, a quick jack up and look around the car would have highlighted all the issues before you went in for the MOT

Throwing the towel in over a couple of hours work and some money

also some saint has messaged me on fb and said he doesnt care how loud it is he'll give me an mot if i sort the other issues



just need to take it off the road for a week or 2, get saving and get it done. its still being sold come summer unless i can find a garage to keep it in

you can see 1-4 where it has been blowing, so i took it into the engineering block at college to check its flatness, results were shocking but they managed to fix it for me for free :)



the had to skim it back 1.5mm to flatten the flange :/ but heres the result
