MOT on Monday

tytek 26 Oct 2012, 3:01pm
Finally my MX5 has been dropped off at the MOT station.
I've never been as busy as I have been and it's been a real struggle to get it ready.
Fingers crossed it will sail through :biggrin:

Failed...

The car failed on it's headlights :-(
They look like someone has tried to buff them up and made a bit of a mess of it.
So now I'm on the lookout for a pair of Mk2 headlights to buy/loan to get me through the MOT.

Guess what I've got! Send me your address on PM and I will send them up in the post for you, you can bring them back when you pick up your kit.

I love a happy ending or should I save that comment for when you have an actual MOT??

The MOT guy will be happy when the lights are changed, it's a done deal :-)

It has, it wasn't even that hard work to be honest.
I'd happily do another.

Well, today is the day I finally get my MOT certificate. The new lights were fitted yesterday (thanks again to Chris at Tribute) and the retest is at dinner time.
A quick trip to the Post Office for a tax disk and I'm good to go!!!
