Krzys Posted December 4, 2013 Share Posted December 4, 2013 LOL i was loving it driving around with them on tonight even though i was the only one seeing them Why share stuff with the rest of the world, it only invites people to annoy you anyway Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Brown Posted December 4, 2013 Author Share Posted December 4, 2013 Dropped her off to my mechanic today he got a couple of bit i asked him to do then he will take her for her mot. Im not worried at all i don't expect a big bill back afterwards. She passed 142,000 miles last night at work which means i have now done 35,000 miles since owning her and as i said to my mechanic this morning she has not cost me hardly anything to repair in that time, the only recurring problem has been c.v boots keep going and i end up changing c.v joints because of it but he said he may have a couple of drive shafts kicking about so if he has he will change them in case thats the problem. And in those 35,000 miles she has never once not started or stopped working in any way at all. Man i love these M's.... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krzys Posted December 4, 2013 Share Posted December 4, 2013 Awesome news on the MOT dude! Bit odd about the CV boots wearing so quickly but hopefully you'll get it sorted! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Brown Posted December 4, 2013 Author Share Posted December 4, 2013 i know have replaced four boots (three joints) since last christmas and he is doing the fifth one as one of the jobs to do ??? but saying that i get the parts sooooo cheap and he charges me so little that it has not caused me any problems keep going , just annoying noise when the c.v starts knocking Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Brown Posted December 4, 2013 Author Share Posted December 4, 2013 That was my other thought mate so i told him to get the parts this time from his supplier as i may be buying a dodgy batch Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vtec2011 Posted December 4, 2013 Share Posted December 4, 2013 Nice one mate! She's holding up really well and especially for that mileage. Not so much about the engine because Honda's are bullet proof (obviously) but what's around the car, like suspension an all. I love how my 17 year old MB3 is faultless! Fly's through the MOT every time without any advisories in the last 3 years of owning her. She's a gem! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KiNK43 Posted December 4, 2013 Share Posted December 4, 2013 That's the beauty of a Honda. If you treat them well they will treat you good back Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
