Ouch MOT
« on: 22 October 2009, 17:57:29 »
Car went for its MOT today and failed on the exhaust. Took it to Kwik Fit and put it on the ramp. A bloody great hole in the mid section and the only way of fixing it is a new left and right mid sections. Total cost £377.00 including a new MOT test as the other place charge for a retest. Was able to get the MOT done free with Kwik Fit if they did the exhaust. Apparently their stockist don't carry parts for the 2.6  >:(.
Expensive month

A good example of why not to use Cr*pFit
