Phyllis passed her MOT this afternoon, no works required and nothing dropped off!

Rather please with that. Surprised, but pleased.

Congrats, always a relief to get that MOT pass.

Ruby failed her MOT last saturday

She needs some welding but nothing major and as she's passed the last 3 MOT's without anything needing doing I won't hold it against her.

She's 40 on Thursday so a slightly rusty bottom isn't too bad. At least nothings sagging yet

Congrats, My MOT is due in November so fingers and every thing else crossed, as she is my only and daily form of transport

Congratulations! It's always good when they pass without any work.
Unfortunatly I was on my way to the MOT station this morning with my mog after giving her a full repaint underneath and . . . . the head gasket blew, losing compression on not one but TWO cylinders!!! it's currently sitting in a side road awaiting a rescue

Oh no, how awful for you both.

There again - getting a pass for less than £40 was nice this year. Last year the MoT cost over £600! Swings and roundabouts, eh? :laugh:

Thats a real pain, which one was it as there are 3 in your signature, at least you are not without transport.

Unfortunatly the one on the left. . . .my everyday run about!

The convertible only comes out in the hight of season and pickup is in bits!! So. . . . it breaks my heart but I'm having to resort to a modern 'eurobox' for the daily commute. . . .Sorry for letting the side down folks!

Hmmm, my MOT is due next week, and I'm dreading it! Horrace is sound enough but i am worried the tester will find big rust somewhere that i don't know about!!

Best of luck, I thought I had it covered with a fresh coat of hammerite, new wheel barings, track rods and a trunion. . . .(I only use undereal on the wheel arches that way I can see exactly what's going on) . . . . .but then . . .DISASTER! I nearly died of embarasment phoning the MOT man to see if his tow truck was free, which it wasn't so mum had to tow me home . . . She's only been driving 6 months (Girl power!) just to add the excitement of the whole event

Still, such is life
