It may be a little premature, but hello there...
Hi,
I'm Dan, 35, West Yorkshire (UK).
I started driving lessons last Sunday and passed my test on Friday. My Dad has a Gen 3 2.7 v6 sat around which he can't afford to run so if it passes it's MOT, that's going to be mine. Not a bad first car I feel
It's been sat around on the drive for 3 years. He runs it every 2 months or so, but I'm concerned the brakes may have seized. Fingers crossed for next Wednesday's MOT. My heart is so set on getting this car that I can't imagine having anything else. Holding off on that K&N 57i for now...

Hello and to the forum
If it's going to fail it will most probably be on the brakes if it hasn't been driven much in the last three years but that will be an easy fix
Hope there is nothing else
I'll keep my fingers crossed

Re: It may be a little premature, but hello there...
Cheers folks.
Yep, definitely think it will be the brakes.. It was fully serviced before being parked up and the engine has been running.. Other than some.scuffs on the rear bumper, it was pretty mint.
Anyway, let's all keep everything crossed
