In the driving seat!
Last week my coupe failed the Controle technique on a dodgy brake hose. Ordered a pair from AA which were cheaper than 1 over here. Fitted it today and went back and it passed. Strange thing is tho' the brake efficiency went up from 61% to 71% with the new hose and brakes being bled!! Still Okay now for another 2 years, just got to summon up the courage for changing the manifold before Christmas. Thanks to Stan and Bockers for the advice on changing the hose.

I unplugged a row of electric cars that nobody was using.
