No wonder the handbrake adjustment had little effect.

Had an MOT booked.. handbrake needed adjustment but made very little difference once adjusted.... So had a quick look and the reason became obvious Rolling with laughter

New shoes fitted and MOT passed.. Thumbs Up

To be honest, I don't understand how they manage to wear, as I only apply my handbrake when the car is stationary. Still, they do and we have to replace them I suppose.

I try to use the foot brake for stopping as I'm driving about..... Laughing

Seriously though, looks like a job well done.....
