MOT yesterday and, as hoped, passed again with the only advisories rear tyres on 3mm. :P
So far, fingers crossed, in our 4 years and 26,000 miles of ownership the Z has cost us a set of tyres and a couple of services.
However in the next month or so all discs and pads will be getting changed and before the winter the rear tyres.
Thinking about redoing the interior trim but getting them hydrodipped this time as the vinyl wrap is starting to lift at a couple of areas and spoiling the look.
I think it deserves to have a bit of money spent on it. :)

Finally got round to getting some of this done.
Disks, pads and sensors are in the garage waiting to be fitted. Will tidy up the calipers at the same time.
Had the interior trim hydro dipped after hunting around for ages looking for somewhere to do it.
Turned out pretty good in the end although hydro dipping is never going to be perfect due to curved surfaces.
