Son no. 2's car - my old Tepee - has somehow passed it's MOT, needing only the exhaust manifold replaced that we knew had a giant crack in it plus a zip tie. We got the sump replaced at the same time as it has been leaking oil for about four years and he's likely to get complaints from the university's accommodation office.
13 years old, 163000 miles, one careless old lady previous owner before us (wedged it in a supermarket car park barrier) and still going strong.
He drives much slower and safer than I do so it should be looked after. He's cleaned it inside and out, all four tyres now match and it no longer gets fumes in the cabin or leaves a trail of oil wherever you go.
. His giant enormouse electric sander can make it seem like the whole house is vibrating.
