Even if I desperately wanted this car I wouldn't buy it after reading this belter of a description.

"I WON AN AWARD"..."I HAVE A BUNCH OF CLASSICS AND A RACECAR"..."IM AN ENGINEER"...

He then goes onto say that it needs a brake light wiring in for an Mot and he doesn't want to do it.

Would he have remembered to put the link in his opening post though?

Spent 6 months looking for the right car so he bought one with a sunroof and proceeded to weld it up and now you can see where it is :roll:

3rd brake light not working is an advisory not a reason for refusal. If fitted AND connected then must work, if fitted and not working the tester is to assume it is not connected. (seriously, check the manual notes).

If half the bulbs work and half don't then it is a fail, if the whole thing is out then its an advisory.

Cream of the crop, an engineer that makes engine mounts from "thick gauge metal".

A fantastic use of his engineering knowledge and vocabulary!

To be fair the install looks neat, he just doesn't come across too clued up :mad:
