Headlamp aim.
N/s headlamp loose - checked and they both are, the ring is tight but not clamping the lamps, didn't notice this before but some adhesive foam strip should sort this.
Emissions of course, no surprise, back off a couple of flats, maybe new plugs and airfilter as these have about 14000 miles on them.
N/s brake hose deteriorating - well these have been on the car for who knows, I will replace with standard for now as the brake upgrade is scheduled for next year. Should be able to get one from the local motor factor.
I am only a little disappointed because I hadn't given the car a full check over and its nothing major.
The car has covered a few hundred miles under 10000 since the last MOT, spent 3 months laid up over winter and has been reliable.
The only real problems apart from the high spped vibration has been the clutch master cylinder (not surprising as it contained some thick black liquid), front wheel bearing and recently the fuel gauge.
The car has not broken down (like it did we I got her) and given good fuel consumption.
