thanks peeps, one thing i didnt realise till i went to look at her, is that she has a sun roof.LOL. right, i really did go over her. none of the tyres show uneven wear which is good.No knocks when driving or turning at full lock.Brakes work fine, pedals feel ok, the interior looks quite tidy and she has hardly any rust on her. She passed her MOT with no advisories. Bad bits. sills are practically flattened, she has lost somewhere along the way her valance/skirt thingy from the front bumper which is also a tadge loose but just needs clipping back on same as the rear bumper. NO PARKING SENSORS.LOL the windscreen has a crack in it , from the top in the middle and is a good 2/3 inches long, but it passed the MOT with it.I will get it replaced. she has a few scratches here and there and a dint in the front bumper. All in all though, she is quite good!.She handles well and it felt real good to be behind the wheel of a galaxy again even though i kept compareing her to the MKII.So much different!. She has 215/65/R15s on her, all good.All reinforced. She needs a bit of work, but i truely do look forward to bringing her back to how she should be. She cost me 1100.I pick her up next week, Tuesday hopefully. Then it will be searching and question time again. :D The main thing is, that the kids will have the space that they need.
