took my evo 4 in for M.O.T and has failed on the following things- nearside rear brake pipe excessively corroded,offside rear brake pipe excessively corroded, brake pipe excessively corroded (front to near). parking brake lever has no reserve travel,exhaust emits excessive dense blue smoke,front (flexi pipe ) exhaust has a major leak of gases. Car is an Evo 4 cheers.
What do the experts (you guys) think??
Thanks

lot of money needs to be spent mate to get it through, brake pipes can be a pain to do, park brake could be adjustment or siezed, worse case handbrake cable or calipers, blue smoke is gonna be the expensive part, burning oil knackered engine or turbo, more likley the turbo and needs to be checked, maybe a nice new exhaust system is required

Hi as Norton Tuning has said, your first thing to check is whether the Turbo's gone. It more likely to be turbo unless you have a high mileage car and your piston ring/oil seals have gone.
So make this your priority first and then you can decide whether its worth fixing.
