MOT time.

Took my car into my trusted garage (East Coast Garage) in Whitecraig for its MOT. I'm glad to say it passed with no advisories. 

 I thought it was brilliant when the MOT tester took his overalls off, washed his hands and put seat and carpet covers in the car before he even got in it. Great service !

Issy..........Bob P your MOT's canny be far away..

Result.  What age is you machine Cambell?

I've got a list of advisories I'm working thru on mine.  Track rods, exhaust bolts......s'not too bad considering its now 10 years old and 83,200 miles on the clock.

I'm sure you'll get that sorted Barry. Yep, I was gobsmacked when I realised and immediately SORN'd it and used my brother in laws van till mine got its ticket which was about a month and £500 in parts later. All sorted though. Its so not like me as I'm an extremely organised person, oh well, poop happens !Embarrassed

Tommy the Transit and Mongo the M5 all legal now Guv ! Big smile
