Mot failed the other day which i was real dogged about as i thought that it would fly through as the car had only done 59 miles since its last mot when i bought it but ah well.

Failed on nackerd n/s driveshaft and o/s front wheel bearing gone. getting fixed but its costing me £300 quid about. This has set me back big time in modding my westy so il have to wait for my alloys till next month now :@.

HOW MUCH!? Get it fixed elsewhere!

Should cost you no more than £100 in parts. To swap them is no more than an hours labour!
