Put my wife's in last week ( the one with "the fuel pump" that had just towed a caravan 2000 miles around France) and that sailed straight through as always.

Good luck with yours andy, you look after yours so it should be fine.
This was it's first MOT whilst in my ownership and it's approaching the dark side (200k miles) and I know the previous owner and apart from oil/belt changes he only fixes stuff when it breaks.
I've given it a load of TLC over the last week, plugs, oil, filters, 2.7 lump and a bit of fettling (OBC backlights etc).
I did notice when I pulled the 2 litre engine that the bores still had cross hatching and no wear lip at the top, I'm very impressed with the E30. When I changed the motor over I had no problem with any of the fixings, even the exhaust manifold came off easily. Try that with a 16 year old ford!
