Yup....no more MOT until it has "a mechanical means of opening the doors from the outside". If I lock the doors from the inside, me in it, the doors cannot be opened. Back to square one are'nt we ? |

Oh dear, that's not good  I kind of see their point BUT c'mon :/Good at least that the handles weren't cut out and plate welded over them, looks recoverable? |

I had to take the car back and have them do the paint again. You could till see where the mirrors were attached and the front of the driver´s door was just fogged. The passenger door had a huge curtain like run on it. All done nice now, installed the outer weatherstrip and mirrors yesterday. |

Job and a half, so far only the driver´s door is all hooked up passenger door today. "Luckily" I decide to leave the lock off the passenger door.....turns out I´ve lost one of my original lock cylinders which must give up an arm off the back to the new ones. I still wish I could find it though. Here we are.....these handles are dreadful.. ..no thought little design.
