Wow I have been leaving this for a while...
So I found out my master cylinder was pitted to heck and back, and a quick refurbishment (that took over 2 weeks) later I have working brakes. Not great, but I can stop if I need to.
Also I managed to replace all the CV boots (a mammoth task in it's own right) and got all that sealed up nicely.
Today I went for my first roadworthy test and the results are as follow:
-Pedal rubbers
-Rear left brake needs adjusting (actually all of them do, might just somehow get a booster.)
-steam clean engine (did some of that afterward, will have to double check from underneath)
-Oil leak (they can't know where the leak is, hence the steam clean)
-x2 torsion bar rubbers
It's school holidays after next week, so I can spend some time getting all the parts I need fitted then got for my 1 free test in 14 days.
Maybe I'll get through.
