Possibly huge.
The mot is up on the BIS, and we are skint.
Would anyone (within an hour or two of hunstanton) be up for lending me two legal, bolt on wheels and tyres and a headlamp until I get the desired bit of paper (stupidly cheap would also do, but would be maore comfortable borrowing then paying sensible price when I can). Pretty certain it is only these and the window washers that are an issue.
Please believe that this is below the level of cheekiness that I except/expect from others, just wish I knew a few faces already.
p.s I did have to get a tad tipsy to post this as I know it is asking quite a lot.
Marc (kisses available on request :D)
p.p.s feel free to say no.
Posted from a teetering knife edge!!!

Got surprised by the mot and can't afford everything at once.
-
I'm sure theres someone on the forum willing to help in need. Sorry I'm not closer
-
The distance isn't that strict, just a guide line (isle of white/ scotland and slovakia are a bit far ;D), will furnish whoever with a bank statement for my address!!!!
Or pay petrol and take for a pint if you would prefer to know where exactly I live( as long as you are not coming from isle of white/ scotland or slovakia).

When my old gaff got burgalarised I got from Chatham to King's lynn in an hour and forty mins(1.6td passat estate).

Marc you can borrow my headlamp for your mot- you can try my wheels but I think they will be a bit wide for a stock car but again you are welcome to come and try them, let me know if that helps and I will pm you my phone number.
-
More than willing to help. May have a couple of wheels and a headlight in garage :D
But would need picking up from Essex. Or we will be in Hunstanton for a break in July if you can wait that long?
-
Bloody tourists ;D July is a bit far away, thank you very much anyway, may be a trip to Essex for me though.
Stuey, sounds good, please do pm me. My car is extremely standard, probably sits high enough to not be an issue.
You are both leg ends :D

If you can get to peterborough mine will be parked up from the 8th march as i can't afford to insure it
-
Peterborough is fine. Hoping to be sorted before then, but will give you a shout if not.
Thank you.

i got 2 spare wheels here but im no use to you in poland ...sorry :cry:
-
Morning Marc , how is your hangover this morning ? :o
I am probably located a bit too far away to help you on this one but it did occour to me that you could fit a pair of air cooled 12" wheels no problem or if you can get your hands on some old Panda, Uno or Cinquecento wheels they would fit.
What is the problem with the headlamp ?
-
Hi Marc,
I have 2 wheels that you are more than welcome to borrow, but they are 12"...not sure if that will help! Im near Newmarket if you can get down here?

Cheers everyone, sourced some very good part worns for £15 fitted, only sat in the way at my favourite mot place weren't they ::)
Still need a light for a week or two (reflector is rustier than a rusty thing), think Stuey has one, and is pretty close.
Thanx once again for all the replies.

If not let me know I can post you a decent one (But you owe me a cup of tea when we come up in the Summer).

I probably have a light you can keep! I live around NR2 or I could post it. Pm me if you are interested.

I can't resist maps, just checked yours out on kingpin post. I am out that way from time to time. Are you in Thetford next week?

Hehe it posted that automatically when i was using the iphone app. I was on my way to work but i dont stop in Thetford. I usually leave my car in Attleborough when i am working (i work near Cambridge). If it is any more convenient i can leave a light in the car so you could pick it up at some point during the day. I may not have a perfect one but i am pretty sure i have one that will get you through the mot.
