Well the Green Machine has gone and passed for another year, but a new advisory mentions the rear valance under the bumper needs replacing, does any one have any information on were to get a replacement?

Great news on the MOT.
Maybe Matt from Essex DAFs might have one kicking about? Or daf Hobby from Holland?

Daffy's similarly just passed the M.O.T., with one advisory for slight play in the off-side rear wheel bearing, which I shall be attending to over the next few days. I fitted a new half-shaft to that side a year or so ago, and although I tightened it up at the time, perhaps over a year or so it might need re-tighteneing.
As I'm sure all of us are aware, cars of our vintage are exempt the emissions part of the test. That said, I DID test them, and recorded a CO of 3.15%, together with an unburnt HC level of 92 P.P.M. These levels would do credit to a car of much younger vintage, so I'm very happy! The tick-over was spot-on at 930 R.P.M., and the clutch disengaged perfectly when the engine returned to tick-over after being revved. All in all, a very successful afternoon!
