Oh yes of course!  I forgot.  I left her here when she was under 3 years old, so its never been to an MOT  :grin:

Hi Robin!  Great to hear from you...  Are JKM as good as ever?  I will probably be taking the car to them to get a LOT done:

1. Full Service including things like spark plugs etc
2. DSG Gear Oil change
3. Lean fuel issue sorted - I believe that after 8 years - wow has it really been that long?! - we have a limited number of potential solutions from what I have read.
4. Will probably have to replace the brand new Michelin Pilot Sport 2's that I had fitted in 2009 and never used  :fighting:
5. Engine Cam chain and tensioner.

etc... its going to cost a bomb I'm sure.  It has been stored in a heated garage with battery conditioner fitted since then at £100 a month, so thats around £8000+ spent on storage since 2010    :rolleye:

....Yes, I can put my hand on my heart and without any hesitation whatsoever say that they are as good as ever. They have looked after my car, including MOTs for I think over 10 years. They treat your car as if it was their personal car.

Just call Kate and discuss what you would like to do.

Thanks!  I will be paying them a visit at some point in 2018 then!  I still need to get the brakes done as well.   :happy2:

Hi Hedge!  How are you?!  I'm genuinely (and pleasantly) surprised that a lot of the old timers are still on here.
