Another year, another clean(ish..) MOT
Well, that's it for another year (slightly suprisingly...).
Clean MOT pass yesterday, other than advisories on 3 of the 4 tyres. Not surprising really, as I've left the "show" wheels on the car for the last 18 months, and they were last in a proper show about five years ago , and Herman's only done around 5000 miles in that time. Time for some new(ish...) rubber...

It's nice to get a clean bill of health especially on an older car.

...and fewer defects/advisories than my 2015 Tesla!

Good to hear there is life in the old dogs yet. After a difficult few weeks following an MoT fail, the Doctor came up with what may be the only front suspension parts for my car in the whole wide world. Happily they were fitted locally and I have a 'clean-ish' Mot with only one minor advisory.
Back to comfortable motoring. A continental tour calls - the spares I carry are Ronin's refurbed alternator and a new fuel pump. Standard VW/Audi should cover much of the rest.

Ours went through last week also.
Clean MOT. Will treat it to a gearbox oil and filter change next. |
