Congrats on the MOT, don't know what engine you have... is it a high or low compression unit? If you don't know, look at the engine number it is 10ma-u-l for LOW and 10MA-U-H for high compression. Mind you, my first hand start caused me a sore arm too.

The DE in GDE indicates a Pembrokeshire registration, so she travelled a bit before ending up as an Essex Girl...
