in fairness it could be worse, they are all 'fixable' problems are you booking it in again, this time next month?

Re: If your going to do something, do it propperly!
they are all fixable, the 1st three all refer to one screw holding on the front sidelight/indicator cluster which also acts as the earth. The number plate is just a case of drilling two holes n screwing it on, the inner arches are just in need of fiber glass, the leak on the brakes is just a union that needs pinching tight, and that just leaves the caliper that is binding, which is just a strip clean re grease and bolt back together. oooo and i need to set the carb up properly!
nothing more than a couple of days work! just a case of finding them couple of days! lol
