Hello all,
I took Beefa for his RWC last week and he failed.
They reckoned that he:
* Was too low (Minis too low? Never!)
* Handbrake didnt work (whats a handbrake? hehe)
* Rust under the boot and battery box (still not fixed, just bodgied!)
* Horn didnt work, the idiots didnt know where it was so they bagged it
* LH spring at the rear

So between last Thursday and this Thursday I did some hard ass work and he passed today! The rust was jsut reinforced till I get the proper repair panels, but he passed the RWC!

Beefa is legally roadworthy! :D
