When I went into the station the officer there said "I don't understand why you were given a producer, your car doesn't need an mot until 2011".
I had a SORN on the car and taxed it before the MOT expired in June, so did not get a tax reminder.
I will have to check what it says on my V5.
i had to cancel the MOT today as i run out of time. Have now moved the engine back 15mm and sideways to the nearside. Also fitted the cast bracket
to the sump to take new stabiliser. I have fiied the bushed upper stabiliser from the Rover as this is shorter, and fabricated a box section type bracket and welded to the lower chassis tube.
Lots of fabrication, welding and painting today but alas no time for MOT.
I hope all this work will be worth it and will let you know after testing.
