My question is are you able to enable your speed limiter for the test? The C5 has this feature and I figured it could be convenient (not that I'm going to speed of course).

No ****ing wonder I was impeding the flow of traffic when the fumes from his farts caused tears in my eyes, and the car being freezing after I opened the window to get rid of the noxious fart fumes. OH failed his after he knocked down a dog! Does she drive a micra? I brought the C5 in to them once to replace the headlight as I couldn't be arsed. They couldn't get something out of the way (think the battery cover was jammed) and refused to use the jack to get it out. I did it myself and they stood there like slack jawed yokels in shock, then finally emerged from their stupor only to fit the fupping bulb wrong. Yes - see my story above. Came home via the M2 this evening (couldn't bear the thought of hitting a crash on the M1, they happen at least three times a week) and came off the M2 at Ashbourne. Cops had a MASSIVE checkpoint which closed off almost all of one of the lanes, all cars were waved through and they had five vans all parked up behind their cordon. Can't be customs looking for dodgy diesel, is it possibly a welfare checkpoint like they were talking about? All the vans were tradespeople vans.

ba_barabus wrote: » I can't agree more with this point. If you're serious join an Irish mini club and they'll help you out but be aware they rust like hell and if they've had a dodgy paint job it's probably hiding problems. If you can weld great, if you can't prepare to pay a welder. Lots of overpriced rubbish out there, and as a general rule the later the registration the poorer the rust protection applied. 90's cars are the worst.

Ded_Zebra wrote: » Some are slower than others though! I'm not sure what my plan is car wise. Part of me wants to change when I get a new NCT on my car (march) but I have only just about got my car the way I want and it would be a shame to get rid of it right away... And I don't know what I want in a new car (other than not white!) I'm looking at everything from Mini's to V6 166's at the moment
