This is very surprising to me; I've heard of cars failing their MoT in the UK, but I've never heard of a car's flunking its annual test in this country for anything other than emissions. I'm sure that my own '87 Gold would be sent to the scrap heap wherever it is that Dave lives, but all California cares about is its exhalations. And I thought that WE had it tough!

So Dave: how much would you want, then, to send your car out to where nobody gives a flying flock about the state of its bodywork? Are its emissions okay? Will it pass its CO2 and other tests? The other problems you cite are well within the known parameters of Milano Grief, especially the clutch thing (balljoint inside rear housing, replace clutch as well because the springs have gotten old and stiff, directly opposite to what most of the owners have experienced...). More to the point from this rather selfish Milano owner: how's the interior?
