New Exhaust Dropped Off
About 6 months ago my exhaust was blowing so I went to Kwikfit. They had a look and, quite reasonably I think, told me that the rear 2 sections needed replacing and a third "might go next week or could last a year". At least they gave me the option.

Is this really road safety?
I've just been along another rural A road and found that it's now littered with 50 limit signs. I've used this road countless times in the last few years and I'd say that the national 60mph limit was a fair one for most of it, though there are a few hazard points where an observant driver would slow down.

Car needs more work than it is worth :(
I recently found out my car needs £450 worth of work done on it (they are a good fair garage so I trust them) and as it is a H reg Micra, I am reluctantly drawing the conclusion that the car will have to be scrapped. Most of the work is just to get it though the MOT. I don't think selling is an option as no one would want…
