Mot passed 316i back on the road

[orkboss]

At last MOT passed and The 316i is back on the road. This E30 is not like many people slick how powered machines on this forum but it is a good faithful runner. Only had one mishap wher the water pump bearing shattered meaning I could not pull the pump out and had to chisel it out. Blue hylemar for them faces!

Nice one, bet it feels good to get back on the road. Cant wait til mine is finished.
That water pump job sounded like fun!

[320Touring]

thats great mate-glad it passed!!!

Congrats - I know all about 316i's and failing MOTs

Mine'll be back very soon though - from the way you say "at last" does that mean you had to drive an awful car while it was getting fixed, like me?

[orkboss]

Yes a 318i touring with a blow gasket. It kept dieing on me every time I came to a stop.

[Zayyan]

It's not so bad.......at least you save on the cost of the paper bags!

Cutting eye holes in 'em gets really time consuming as well!

[dazleeds]

conbgrats mate

zayyan youll soon be back fella

[Zayyan]

She's not my bird.....honest

The E30 is back tomorrow.....driving a car that doesn't rattle over 40mph and isn't brown is gonna be fantastic

I definitely do not love this car - the attraction was that it had 9 months T&T, was available when I needed it and not too far from home........oh and 54mpg too and basically nothing to insure for the month of course....

Paying 150 quid for it and selling it for 200 after a month's use makes a lot of sense to me as well
