E34 BMW 525i Sport (The Bomber)
I've had to get a bit creative with this car seems noone can find a shock to match so I have had to change the top mount as well to get a shock to fit!! BMW have never come across this problem????? So god knows where these parts came from even boge (Sachs) have no record of these and can offer a replacement!!! What a chore that was!!! Retest tomorrow so fingers crossed.

Sorry to hear the m.o.t is being a pain Rob, Fingers crossed it will still end up a cheap grin machine?
A stupid question? But is the cat a genuine one? I used to m.o.t my neighbours suzuki that had been fitted with a pattern cat, This and the fact that shes in her seventies and only used to potter to the shops once a week in it meant that one year it just wouldn`t go through the gas test even being rev`d hard for several mins. I then thrashed the bollocks out of it down the duel carridge way for about twenty miles and re-tested it - It passed easily!
Good luck.
