Broke it! Engine light stayed on at start up and Manual says it's ignition/emissions fault. Local garage can get M/home on Diagnostics late afternoon, and think it may be a sticky EGR valve or similar after no use for 2 months. Fingers crossed we will be still be able to attend Rolls Royce Leisure Rally, albeit as a 'late arrival at the Ball', tomorrow at the earliest :unsure:

Took it up to mot centre only to find its on wed 18th and not what the girl on ph said, now got a email to confirm, dont care as centre is a mile from my hovel, wife says my marleys are going. 😂
Naw, Trev; just swinging to and fro with all the coming and going. It's why urine is yellow and the other stuff is white, so that we know, without too much investigation, whether we are coming or going ... :ROFLMAO:

Removed scabby corroded wiper arms and cleaned / repainted as they looked rough.
While I was at it I noticed a while back the plastic scuttle cowl never really fitted that great so took it off to discover all the push in clips were broken and it was loosely attached with the cheapest looking silicone ever.
Ordered up 10 new clips and cleaned up scuttle cowls / and area under windscreen ready to refit when clips arrive.
Another previously bodged by previous owners job to add to the "been bodged" list - It's growing and growing.
