Well my Marea has passed its MOT :slayer: by the skin of its teeth. :eek:

Front brake imbalance was 23% fail is 25%
Rear brake has high imbalance.
Rear N/S brake pipe is slightly corroded
Lower N/S ball joint rubber split.

So any idea if calliper repair kits are available?
Can you still get ball joint rubbers and if so where from?

Youre not looking at it properly or should I say far enough. If you look along the line to the right of the caliper number you have picked you will see a little box with an arrow pointing down at 4 oclock click on that and it will show you what you want to see. Theres two kits.
 
i saw 4 this weekend between corby and ingoldmells and a 125td at the garage i had the mot done at, it has been sitting for 6 months and the owner hasn't been in contact so they may sell it and if so i get first dibs but not sure i want it now after my clutch went
