Passed,  advisories on

All four tyres
Front and rear discs and pads

Will buy the discs and pads and fit myself.
Dealership suggested jinyu tyres at £100, but I can't with clear conscience fit them.

Continental sport contact 5 are 240 each!

Oven hob short circuit fixed

Hob cut out this week while cooking.
I assumed it was a short in one of the elements or the PCB,  but thought I would chase the wiring into the hob just to make sure.

Opening the cover under the hob revealed this, the live and neutral wires sorted together.
Easy fix,  cut out wires and reattach.

Given the cost of spare parts for a ceramic hob I'm more than a little chuffed is all fixed.

At least now I can spend the money on cars...
