Another year, another MOT
The old girl passed again with flying colours, no observations.
 To quote the tester (mate of mine) "Try as hard as I could I couldn't find anything even slightly wrong, very tidy".  He did however note (I had warned him) the odd gearbox/throttle behaviour driving it to/from his place of work, a couple of times. He had, when I described it to him beforehand, suspected the Throttle Position Sensor, but now doesn't. Said it was more like being in the wrong gear. I think that's consistent (insofar as anything is!) with the F125 switch occasionally playing up and not reporting correctly the gearbox status. So, that's the next job.
