Title: MOT.
Post by: ffcgary1 on 22 November 2008, 16:46:32
Well boys and girls, i had a sneeky feeling that my mot was due but could not find my old certificate, which is very odd as i keep all my car docs safe , but i guess the swmbo has moved them. Well my pal at vx kingston was at work today and a trip to see him confirmed my suspictions, it expired 2 months ago[bad bad boy], so a new mot was performed today and PASSED WITH FLYING COLOURS. He did say that the passenger side head light was a touch to low but when he tried to adjust the beam up it made no difference so  i have the dreaded broken adjuster. They did have a new light in stock and he said that the lamps on the car were pattern parts[Depo] and wre not as good as gen parts and he showed me the difference [ wow ] the depo have crap beam spread compared to the gen new lamp.  Now i am aware that the old wil not be as they were when new due to weathering. so new lights to be bought when finances allow[or if i can con the other half to allow me to use her credit card] ;D then took the car for a splat down the A3and M25 to give it a good run and get rid of the cobwebs.Dam it still feels good to drive. :y
