Yeah it isn't good enough really, they would or should have an obligation to check their cars, at least for major things. Like head gaskets, I mean it doesn't take long to compression test the cylinders.
Although it would take a while to do one on a W12 or something  but I doubt they get too many of those.Also EFI windors would be annoying to do, crappy plug access n all..

need to have a look at the exhaust tail pipe is rubbing against the spare tyre well wich is strange as theres only one way it goes
 also with the picture about that will only be a temporary thing as it looks s**t seeing how my fab skills are rather poor i may have to look into getting something made up so it looks better.

ok i was looking at an old console here today and decided i didnt need it so i butcherd it up to make a better version of the gauge holder i made yesterday
 here is attempt 2. before paint  being painted  everything fitted  and test fitted to the ute   looks alot better the 2 oil gauges are there to fill in the holes ill be getting some different ones shortly, also the utes been playing games with me  went to leave a car park today and it wouldnt start it eventually started and splutterd and carried on so i gave it a few decent revs and it seemed ok still taking abit to start tho  i also need to look at the tail pipe as its hitting the tyre well i didnt get around to it today and it may be time to start looking into some brakes mine are quite bad
