I dropped my Cossie off last Saturday morning for Mike to have a look at the ABS intermittent fault. He was sure he could fix it and I asked him to give the car the once over as the MOT is due at the end of next week and report back which he was happy to do as he works on these every day so he knows his stuff and seems a genuine bloke. He rang me to say the ABS is fixed and report a few small pre-MOT problems but nothing major. Wear and tear. I was going to pop over and see him this morning and see him as he wanted to show me with it on the ramp but there was a crash on the Motorway near me and the roads were gridlocked so I rang him and arranged to go and see him on Saturday morning instead. I have no reason whatsoever to question what he is telling me but he insisted on showing me the vehicle before commencing any work on my Cossie. I'll update after I go and see him on Saturday morning the 7th November. Digger get the kettle on I might well pop round for a coffee and a natter if your in. The front ends blue, the back ends red?

You know well it's pucka. Mike even told me in his expert opinion what he recons it's worth when these and the body works been done. I am well happy with his price. As standard 4x4 Cossies are in demand atm and if it were for sale he would be interested in buying it off me as he has Customers wanting Cossies.

Booked in to my painters bodyshop to get the rear n/s wheel arch repaired/replaced and waxoiled. Then hopefully get the agreed valuation I would like this time from my Insurance company. MOT runs out on Friday (13th) Insurance due on the 16th next Monday. Had my quote from Carole Nash.

Policy re-newed with Carole Nash. Will send pictures after my n/s rear wheel arch has been repaired. Agreed valuation has been upped and my excess has dropped from £500 to £100. Also dropped my mileage from 3,000 per annum to 2,000 as I'm not doing anywhere near either. Going to my paint man tomoorow for the n/s rear wheel arch to be repaired and the underside and sills waxoiled. He's going to put it on a ramp before I leave and give the underneath the once over.
