Default Mot pass

The NUK Tourer had it's first mot in my ownership today, pleased to say the work I have done on it since I purchased it in November 2018 as paid off with a pass & no advisories.

I still have a few jobs to sort out like finding a good lower engine mount with a letter T on it, then paint the calipers the rest is all done cheers Arctic

By the cringe, those emission figures are a bit.......good Steve.

I'm hoping to emulate your MOT results when I take the old man's tourer in tomorrow or Friday.

Nice one.

Ok so 12 months as passed and my MOT was due, I got up at 6.30am yesterday had the usual two rounds of toast and a nice cup of coffee after my shower.

I then went over the car checking all the lights, tyre pressures, window wipers, seats belts and the like even though I did it a few days ago, had another cup of coffee then set out on my 25 mile Italian tune up before arriving at my MOT station at 09.40.

Handed the keys over and off I went for a 45 minute walk, came back was handed the keys back along with my new MOT for 2021 so good start to the day.

Stay safe out there guys all the best Arctic.

Why take a vehicle for an MOT test with an almost illegal tyre? A front tyre at that. I would be ashamed to admit the fact. Ttssskkk.

HI Sean.
The last post up is of my Freelander 2 MOT pass. Sadly the original MGZT 190 is no longer with me. It was exchange for the NUK in 2018 which Brian referenced to posts 19/ 20 in the thread above, it was due in April i could have use the Gov extension but preferred to have it's MOT kept up to date, post 29.

This thread helps me keep track of the dates due etc also for others to post their MOT tests if they want too.

Thumbs up Pre MOT Italian Tune UP

I still maintain and have always said coincide your full service on the car, ie all filters, oil, and bottle of this in your tank a week before your MOT.

https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/222076086571

On the day of your MOT make time to run your car for at least 30 minutes on full pelt an hour would be better, this will get the car up to full temp, try to arrive 5 minutes before your booked time.

Then you should get good readings on the emissions test.
