Just picked up the Beta from the MOT station. Passed with a couple of advisories which were already on the 'to do' list anyway.
However, as any Greek scholar knows, hubris in front of the Gods is the greatest sin! Stopped at the petrol station on the way home. The guy in the queue asked if I'd just washed my car? Not in brown coolant I hadn't. Back home a good tighten of the bottom hose clip seems to have stemmed the tide (the body shop had the radiator out while fixing the front cross member).
Hopefully the end of a pretty difficult year of Lancia ownership.
