Hi Everyone,
Just got a quick query which i'm wondering if anyone could help me with: I own a 94 "M" Plate facelift 460Li saloon, it's a great car, but has it's MOT coming up in July. At the moment the exhaust is blowing/clanking on start-up, tax is due at the end of the month, at it's last MOT it was given advisories on rusty brake pipes and suspension strut tops, and the clincher is that both rear wheelarches are starting to rot through, one quite serious as a chunk of the inner sill/inner whelarch, where they both meet the outer wheelarch, came off as a chunk of rust two months ago.
Im wondering if the car is financially viable to continue spending money on or scrapping soon, so need to know really how serious this would all be with regards getting another MOT?, especially the wheelarches, as i'm not sure how rusty they have to be to fail.
If anyone has any info, i would be very grateful!
