So that MOT I very briefly mentioned in my last post? The one that I had been feeling good about because the car felt OK and I'd been keeping up with the tyre pressure thing this year?
Apparently I need a new steering rack. It's actually dangerous to drive at the moment. My mechanic wants "a word" to find out how I didn't notice it. It won't go through the MOT without a new one.
Er, what exactly am I supposed to have noticed?
*sigh* My mechanic seems to always end up disgusted with me for not noticing that things are wrong with my car. It's always worst when I think that I've had a good period for taking care of the car. Am now feeling angry with myself and frustrated that that's money for my move that will now have to be spent on replacing a (probably) very expensive car part. It certainly sounds expensive.
Oh, and I could have killed people by driving a car with a duff steering rack.
Can someone explain to me what a steering rack is?
