My Builder's Van MOT
« on: 28 November 2019, 20:14:29 »

Took my builder's van (53 plate Omega 2.6 CDXi ) for it's yearly official prodding by MOT tester
it passed ,no advisories  :)
it's the second time under my ownership
calculated that i'd spent more on petrol than i had buying the Omega  ;D
so now it's passed, i'm going to treat it to ....
Oh ,wait ,it doesn't need anything other than more petrol  :D

I passed the french car lover last friday coming out of shrub end tip. Was he disposing of the french car? Who knows, scrap yard would not take it as they only want metal, not plastic ;D ;D

all French cars get a MOT first time, the tester just wants the POS off his ramp and away from his garage  ;)
if he failed it, it would have to come back for re-test ,doubling the risk of a catastrophic fire ,caused by the dripping fluids and spontaneous combustion effect of French manufacturers wiring looms  :y

Well, the Omega passed but it did have a couple of advisories on front disc inner face corrosion and play in a balljoint. A couple of little jobs for after Christmas I think.
