What do you do on a monday morning, when life is a little boring from a working point of wiew.? Well, you take one of your Matras to the lokal MoT-station, Either this can save the day, or make it even more monday-like.
So I took the Bagheera out on a very early morningstray. The young man at the MoT-station looked like this could save his day. Everything went well, untill the braketest. It did not brake the same on the frontweels( the left a little less than the right) The Young MoT-guy tried again and again." This cant be right "he said, "everything has been ok until now, I would be very sorry to fail it becaurse of this...."No problem I said, let me take it for a race around the block, and give it some hard(heart)-breaking, then I am sure it will be allright. And Yes....after a short ride, it braked perfect. The young man was releaved that he could pass it. "That gives me hope for that you will come back here next time with this beautyfull car", he said.

Now My monday looks a lot brighter Grin

Haha, it must have been a very good party yesterday, since you were that courageous this morning! Grin

Nice trick with the brakes, by the way...

Well done Lars!
During the next two years you just need to remember to race your Bagheera a little bit more.
