You are going to start me off singing that one now, which is bad as I sing like a bird but unfortunately it is a Carrion Crow..........

 

 

Trivia question for you, what was the name of the TV series that song came from?

Today I dropped off my late fathers V reg Corsa which will be 15 years old on 01/09/2014 for an MOT at a friends garage in Peterculter which he rents out to a mechanic who was made redundant from Culter Car Centre when they ceased to trade. Last year the car  got an advisory saying the inner rear (sill) Suspension component mounting prescribed area is corroded but not considered excessive. About a month ago I jacked the car up and took off the wheel and removed the rust and gave the area a paint with black Screwfix black "Hammerite paint" thinking there was a small hole that would need welding. Well I was over the moon when I got a call this afternoon from the mechanics wife saying the car was ready for collection. When I collected the car the mechanic said no welding was needed and the only thing it required prior to the MOT was adjustment to a wheel bearing. I was delighted it passed with no advisory's and with 99,073 miles on the clock. I have only done over 1,000 miles with it over the last year but I hope I will do more over the next year and take it around the clock and then hopefully keep it as an emerging classic in another 5 or so years time. I have all the MOT certificates and I'm sure all the invoices for servicing are in the handbook...the only thing I need to check on is to see if my mum has kept the purchase invoice for the car which was registered on 01/09/1999....fingers crossed she has ;D  ;D
