Today I went to try and register the car

Since I live in the Netherlands I have to register it here.

here are couple of pointers for people trying to do the same:

Cars before 1997, do not need rear fog lights!
If the car is RHD you have to change the front headlights

You get your car checked out at the RDW www.rdw.nl and they just check the papers and if you want they do the APK (same as MOT, TUV or emissions testing)

I did that and sadly I failed!

I need some new tie rod ends and ordered 2 from www.camskill.co.uk Very nice people and they called me to tell me they shipped it out the same day. good stuff.

Now I have to wait for that.

Because they said the tie rod ends were badI m gonna post some pics.

also wanted to check the cambelt and did so.
















here is a pic of the tie rod. It doesn't look bad and the steering actually has no play, but what can you do!


















Ordered new ones, they are suppose to look something like this (on the right)
