Good luck to you as well

The insurance is about due on the Vitara so I hope it all goes OK as we will be shortly be putting the Vit up for sale to help fund an E39 touring. Then sadly mine will be going as well.. (will be greatly missed  - but hey ho - gotta move on)

Mines due in tomorrow, had an absolute nightmare trying to trace a broken wire for the RH licence plate light, once sorted then was shorted to LH fog light so when boot shut, still only one licence plate and a foglight instead Eventually sorted out and all electrics and now dreading tomorrow!

Big sigh of relief - passed with near flying colours. just had an advisory about the rear of my exhaust (no big deal, little bit of rust thats all)

The chap I use is pretty strict when it comes to testing and takes pride in his work.

Oooooooooooooooh Yeah!!!  Straight through for the second year running, got an advisory for three brake pipes although they are ok now, need to be done for the next time round, other than that - perfect!

My missus is well peeved! It's the second year in a row that my car been cheaper to MOT than hers, before then my bill would normally be 200-300 each time, and hers flew through - now it's my turn to rub it in!  .

thanks Rhys, I'm just worried about the exhaust emmisions, as I can't test them myself..

I'll give her a good run, before I put her in for MOT.. ..might come back to bite me though..
