Another my car has passed it's MoT Test

Tatts · 23rd September 2009, 12:14

I was going to take it to Inverness on Monday, then I noticed the test has expired, ended up taking my ZR. (50 mpg!!)

Pity DVLA/VOSA/Whoever don't send out reminders a month before the test is due, bet there's loads of folk who simply forget when the test is due.

Anyway, it passed with 1 advisory. Nearside handbrake isn't pulling it's weight. Strange, as I had them replaced last year. But it's probably a lack of use thats caused the problem.

You're not kidding! Went to the local DVLA today to sort out one or two issues including the transfer of a private plate only to find that the MOT expired last December!

I can't believe that this has been missed, never done it before. No wonder that I couldn't find the certificate. There's just too much to think about these days and I guess that age does nothing positive for the memory.

The MOT station I use send out reminders every year, about a month or so in advance, IMO they should all do it.

Good to see that it passed mate.

Or maybe they should implement the EC recommendation that cars only need testing every two years
