Emissions are a big one for me smoking quite a bit lately, burns a fair amount of oil, needs the piston rings and valve stem seals doing, this probably won't help it much

Just throw the tester a few cheeky winks, he'll pass it just to get you out of there quick

Well i'm home now with a nice green MOT certificate! Very very close on emissions, think piston rings and stem seals need doing for sure, so i'm on the look out for another X16XE i can rebuild properly out of the car
