OK, facing up to the idea that my turbo needs some attention and it'll probably cost me time and money. However I wasn't quite expecting the quote I got for the work from the first, fairly convenient place I tried (I'd have to get a bus home and then back, but only about 40 minutes including...

I've just got my 1996 Espace MKII through the MOT but it could have gone very wrong. As usual I left the MOT to the last minute and popped down my local garage in NW10 for the MOT, unfortunately the car failed on the steering rack and ties and was deemed dangerous (this was written on the...
