Did they write that down on the service check list - or anywhere else on any paper work you have?   s;-) ;-) s;-)

I saw N's car at the pre Treasure Hunt gathering and it was immaculate for the age.  It had done a very low mileage (I think less than 10k) so I reckon his pre cats are pretty safe.

i suppose i have been naughty in not asking for the proof of checking the pre cats. but i will do next service. i can only say in my defence i have not have much dealings with Mr t before and i do have a trusting nature

many thanks for the advice though and it will be done next service.

ps
just finished caliper painting got lovely red ones now.

low mileage can be teh result of lots of short journeys.

which can be just as damaging to teh pre-cats as lots of long ones.
