A long haul down to Mablethorpe yesterday morning, for our first call of the day, through torrential rain on the way, but thankfully it had cleared by the time we got there.

Rob had bought his ‘04 TF 1.6 last year and only after a couple of months the head gasket went, plus the car also had no service history.

Head gasket replacement and cambelt service carried out. Great to meet him and his parents, who had given up their garage space to store it until our visit. Lots of chat while we worked, and pleased to have the car back in order for Rob to finally enjoy. Big thanks to him for the boxes of chocs and biscuits!

We then headed a coupe of miles along the road to Sutton-on-Sea, for work on Mark’s ‘03 TF 135. He’d had an advisory on the last MOT on the discs and pads, so on asking our advice he thought he’d take the opportunity to replace them with the upgraded version that Will Naylor supplies. One of the track rod ends also replaced and the car is good to go. Thanks to him mum for the cuppas and nice to see Mark again, when he could pop over between work to say a quick hello.

We then headed along to Holton-le-Clay for hydragas pump up on James’s N reg MGF. Great to meet him and his brother and have a chat before we finally headed home, a long but good day.

A family day today, which was so good, with a couple of cars being dropped off at the workshop today, then we’re back there in the morning for a bit of a busy Sunday ahead! – https://ift.tt/qB6oYFV
