Good luck! Always nerveracking but so long as you checked the obvious (lights, tyres, no weird knocks) should be grand!

nice one. the advisories are nothing to worry about but should have been spotted by yourself when you checked it over.

I knew about the exhaust - I've been posting on here about it enough. I don't know why the tyres were on there as they are both above the limit. The trailing arm only had slight movement which I didn't notice.
