car passed its mot today,thought i had 2 weeks left,turned out it was to run out tomorrow.
as ive lost/thrown away the last mot didnt know when it ran out.

yeah why oh why when it comes to mot time my sphincter goes a pouting [bash]
took it back to the car dealer/garage i bought the car from,WHERE HAS THE YEAR GONE.?
not something i normally do but as i had a years warranty on the car seemed rude not too eh.
for the last 5 years have been using a firm called 'just mots' and thats all they do so no axes to grind or try to drum up work.
so was dreading this 1 tbh.
well she only went and done it again,with flying colours clapping and jumping,
said to the guy serving,really thought it might fail on a brake problem,he reply bloody hope not as we done them only a couple of months ago.just testing i said ;)
booked on line for only Ã,£30.
just mots,if youve got 1 near you try them.
What have you been doing with
with the old bus
wrapping her in cotton wool!!
:) :)
well done again
Tony
no, :)
it gets used as a van mostly.golf clubs in it and carrying tools etc,once in a blue moon do i empty it so the rear seats can be used.
now on 119000+ miles,next year if ive still got it,it will require a cam belt change.
Greg does believe in getting the most out of a cam belt (tight git) let's hope it don't end in tears [CRY] :) :)
Numerous examples of them failing well before the (maximum, note) recommended change interval of 125,000/10years. Mostly on the 1.8 but the 2 and 2.2 are not immune. A Ford tech that I know recommends no more than 80,000 or six years, so I suspect that many more are failing than we hear about on t'internet.
The secret is to give the car a good wash and have a friendly chat with the MOT tester so that they like you and donââ,¬â,,¢t try to rip you off as much. Also if you leave a Haynes manual on the front seat and make sure they see you checking the bulbs etc before it goes in then they are more likely to pick another target
