Well, sorted the rear calliper, discs, pads, etc etc she went in for re-testing and passed with 3 advisories which I knew about and will be sorting before her road trip to Nottingham in 2 weeks!

Now where do I put these new site stickers? lol

Update list time;

So for the list of work, a brief drive home meant some issues surfaced, they are;

Throttle cable - Fixed, no issue at all, 2 seconds!
Wind noise at motorway speeds - Nearside front door (Check rubbers, fix/replace as needed) - Believed to be clogged rain channels, will clean, leaked into passenger footwell
Tyres perishing (Replace as required, but good tread for now on most)
Alternator Whine (Possibly bearings) - Still unresolved
Ruddy good clean - Phase 1 underway, better weather will allow full cleaning
Wheels! (Defo needing a refurb, maybe subtle colour change too)
MOT - Passed!
Dent on bonnet/Boot (May fix/replace, will se on how annoying it is and spare cash)
Stereo (Standard, do I replace 6 disc changer for BT head unit?) - Keeping as the changer is an MP3 multidisc one
Totally standard! (Does it want anything or just site stickers ) - Site stickers to be fitted
Handbrake (Pulls too high) - To be adjusted
Service (Due one, FSH though!) - Waiting for next month as it will be done by local MG/Rover specialist, £170 full service though - ouch!
Rear Discs/Pads and calliper - Fitted

Should keep me busy during lunch breaks!
