| It failed but not badly very imprest to be honest its failed on: Nearside windscreen wiper not operating over a large enough area to give an adequate view. (in english needs a wiper motor as its naffed on the spindle) Both headlamp aims too low Offside front brake pipe inadequately clipped thats it pretty bloody good for a £500 bug | |
