V40: - Good day so far!

Well today has bee a good day so far, put my V40 in for its mot today and it passed with just two advisories one being a slight oil leak on the sump, possibly from when i changed the oil filter and the other was a slightly distorted wheel thanks to the grand canyon of a pothole i hit two months ago. Not bad for a eight year old car with 161000 miles on her.

Aye not even run in yet lol, mind you had to change the rear discs and pads Monday night, just a tad under £50 for the set and £20 for the mot.

Really just the usual wear and tear. Glad it's not been a money pit though and has served you well

Been the best car i've had so far especially when you consider i've put 20thou on her since the last mot. Looked like the rear discs may have been the origionals aswell.
