VRS going for an MOT today

Featured Replies

Fingers crossed it passes.

Then I'll blast about in it this week. :-)

Then it's for sale next week :-(

Good luck with the sale.

Mine went in on weekend, after being stopped by the police and told it was 3 months expired . Oops!!

Mine expired 27th last month, but the tax has been out too. So decided to sorn it while I decided what to do. Will miss the thing when it goes. But I'll still be about on the forum like a bad smell

woohoooo

I hate MOT time, always makes me nervous even though I have no reason to be!

Touch wood!

Mine is in today for test and service. New pads and discs required for the front as I suspected but no other reported issues :-)

Failed first attempt - reason - an out of alignment headlight. Retest was fine after 30 seconds with a screw driver. Car now going into the for sale section.

B*stards. Someone did this to me on my first ever MoT. I think it can be a way of extracting more money out of you for what is, as you say, an easy fix. Why not just tweak and set it, then pass the check?

Today's work featured new front/rear pads, front discs, wipers, few bulbs, new oil...Plus the V12 Evo Hankooks fitted last week = My Furby feeling fresh and liked it used to. Very little smoke too!! :happy: Oh and yes it did pass.

Back in Wednesday to fit a cam sensor, which should hopefully fix the hard start issue. Battery is 8 years old and at 72% design capacity, so I will need to address that too.
