Ok, back from the hoist.

There's a few minor things needing doing. Mechanic pointed them out and I promptly forgot several of them.

The front sway bars need new bushes, not surprising. Some D bolts need replacing as they aren't the right ones. The steering rack boot is leaking and needs renewing. And I think he said something about the rear control arms but not essential.

A steal at six hundred bucks including labour so it goes back on Friday to get it all done. They also insist on doing a front end alignment again afterwards, which I'm not convinced about but they seem to think needed.

He was impressed by the cars overall condition. I was told some of the cars they see are in a pretty bad way.
