Thumbs up MOT yesterday - sailed through!

120k miles, very little care and affection from me this year....still haven't fitted the new rear disks and pads that I bought 8(!) months ago....

And the tester was REALLY thorough.

Gobsmacked.....and very happy.

Bit peed off with some of the scaremongering that Amersham Audi clearly did when they serviced it in the summer trying to get me to spend fortunes on unnecessary work.....

Congrats mate glad it got through another year

Not so confident with mine though. Every time I scan it I get another fault. I'm thinking of starting a fault of the week thread .

What were the stealers telling you was wrong with the car?

Nice one.

Mine got through the previous week - albeit it needed a set of upper suspension arms (which was expected), but otherwise no issues.

Good news. Always glad to hear that little or no unexpected expense was incurred.
