It's that time of year again, and we are just back from having the MOT done.... yes, she passed again! (no advisories) I was sitting in the MOT station and realised that she is 15 years old this year! :oldman:

Always such a relief when it’s a pass. Credit to the owner of course for careful maintenance. :thumbsup:

She's only failed her Mot once and that was last year, cracked drop link! So to celebrate I think we will go round some showrooms at the weekend and look at some possible replacements for her :w00t:

Are you sure that isn't tempting fate?

She might throw a tantrum - probably of the random electrical variety!

I didn't assign the gender! The OP mentioned "possible replacements for her". :poke:

Not as much as the other 'she' (as her in doors) if I come home with another Z! :telloff: When I use to sell cars (like a million years ago) we had an appraisal system, and written at the top of page 2 in big bold letters BMWW BRAVE MAN WITHOUT WIFE! :dizzy:
