MOT'd today... horrific problem!

Passed with no advisories, but the damned thing got rained on for the first time since the last MOT!

I knew it should pass but it's always a relief

mines being MOTd today... expecting a fail given that the low brake pad warning light is on, the emissions light is on, and I seem to be leaking brake fluid from somewhere.

but strangely, I quite like it when a garage finds problems and then fixes them, so if it does fail on a worn bushing or whatever it'll be nice to get it fixed as then it'll likely drive better as a result.

The trip to the MOT station must be the longest journey it's done this year

900 miles

To be fair I was laid up with a back injury last summer and plan to do better this year

Can't you find a closer garage?

First world problems!

If you live in the UK and the MOT is due this time of year your car is quite likely to get wet!

At least it got a clean bill of health.

Well I guess between the rain and the mot the wipers have had their annual workout!

My MOT is coming up, had quite a lot of advisories last year but as I've only done 300 miles in it since I'm hoping they'll still be advisories !

Hi Russ 59.
Good news on your zed. If you want your rear brake pipes done at any time, give me a call. No stupid prices either. Im only in Chesterfield.

Andy.

Thanks for that

, but my brothers, brother in law is a mechanic locally and he’s going to be servicing my car so will let him have a look at them for me.
Where abouts in Chesterfield are you?
