It's a pass :driving:cool:)

A few advisories - mostly front sway bar and wheel bearings need a tightening - might have a look see if I can get some new hubs for rixxy.

I still need to sort my exhaust hangers - they are ok but will not last till winter

Always MOT the FC's in the summer - winter is no time to be under a car with an angle grinder!

Whats were your emissions like then?
Congrats on the pass there Dave,always nice to have that out the way for another year.

Let me know where you go for the Hubs as I am thinking about buying the bearings, especially for the rear. I know they will come apart easily as they were off last year.

Last time I enquired about just getting Bearings, Mazda only do the hub as a whole unit - so if anyone can actually get bearings only that would be excellent.
