Not bragging but more relieved than anything else! Car went in this afternoon to Nelson and passed with a clean sheet, not bad for a car that is nearly 11 years old. Also noticed that Mat Lads has sailed through this week also.

 

So come on, did you pass without penalty or did you get a few black marks on the test sheet to sort out?

mine was 100% last time i did it, nowit should be 130% this time comming on october lol.Since i have hardly driven it he he.

Failed on 2 small holes on the exhaust, so I went home cranked up the welder and had a 'Ticket' by the afternoon.

 

No other problems

Nice feeling isn't it Timmy Lad?

 

Yep, she sailed through with Zero problems.

 

Was a bit nervous though.....must be the car...

------------------

Straight through - no worries.

 

In the past have had to have a new suspension top link and new front discs though ....

Mine always passes. I bought my current house from the guy who owns the testing station

Mine allways passes first time,that's because it is very well maintained that's the secret .

 

------------------

passed fine last time, this time it wont though i dont think. It handles like shit, so there has to be something wrong with it somewhere.

dunno mine ran out in may and ive been too busy to get it done yet

Mine failed on offside rear electronic damper unit £85, & the handbreak travel £20 (new cable)& still impressed for a 10 year old car. Fail was 3 days before trax last year cost me my stint around Silverstone .

As 'Iain' said maintenance is crucial! Tlc & this forum are serious money saving tools in the box.

Mine 'flew' through the MOT apart from front brake pads which were replaced then no probs!.

Im an MOT tester - what do you think??!!!!

 

 

 

------------------

I feel the need, the need for speed!

 

Due in July. Pleeease go through OK.

Straight thru - nothing at all to put right

Straight through in late March pleased to say..good job now I am having new Energy bushes on and I have a shagged wishbone cos of our sucking roads.. (

Passed last week no problem, he did find two nails in my tyres though!

No such probs for me, we don't have mot's here in I.O.M

how you doing paul.

Shit...I've got to do mine. I must replace the balljoints and sort out the tracking first though. Hopefully they will not see that the front bushes are leaking after I've cleaned them up. Don't worry fellas I'm getting them replaced as soon as I have the time to sort them out. Fingers crossed.

 

Praying & hoping,

Van

Van,
