        Me neither - but when mine failed for a worn petrol filler cap seal I realised anything is possible!

              I noted you are running Zimmerman drilled floating rear discs - are you? Are you happy with these?

                            or two, not great driving to get it tested as the MOT ran out 25/02/13 but just glad it passed without any problems.

                                It did fail once on rusty brake discs which looked ok from the front so you never know but after all the work in recent months I would have been surprised to see a fail sheet.
