Worst MoT test fail ever?! We know John's Range Rover is in a terrible state and now that it's Official, we'll have to decide whether to do it up or blow it up!

Edd China's Workshop Diaries 26: 1986 Range Rover Part 9 - how badly can a car fail a government test?

Driving 'Moss' Daisy back from the MoT station was far more traumatic that it needed to be, especially having just collected official written proof of so many issues. Had to stop five or six times just to let the gearbox fluid cool down and to add insult to injury each time I had to bridge the starter solenoid with an old key, as it would no longer start on the key!
This week I go through the paperwork with the owner, John (partly to see him squirm a bit) and discuss whether we should keep on with our struggle to get Daisy back on the road or whether to take drastic action and pour our effort and money into a perhaps more deserving project.
