All very true Iain, thats why i am only keeping it for a few months to enjoy it while i do some work to my 155, i got it very very cheap so it's puely a money spinner.  It has 11 months MOT & many of the common faults have recently been attended to. |

Worn bushes, cam belt variator, lambda sensors...........need I go on. Thats the reason I didn't want one they are excessively expensive to keep running. |

Doh! Paul if you need to replace the bearings you didn't need the nuts as the kits come with them and the kits are cheaper 
Congrats on the MOT guys, always a nice feeling after it's passed |

| My red TI just passed last week with a split CV gaitor replaced. Advisory on both rear wheel bearings, which definitely do need replacing. |

Hi,
The 33 just passed another MOT which will see it into it's 10th year of ownership for me in April, unless anything unforseen happens or I get an offer like Alex's 
Only recommends were condensation in one headlight- didn't have time to hairdryer it out, and as always slight play in both rear wheel bearings- grrr- they never seem to understand taper rollers need slight play!
I had been worried about a front floor bung- please see post in 33 workshop.
