Hmm.. Caring to much about keeping a "clean sheet" when it comes to MOTs on ageing cars is doomed to end in disappointment eventually.
We had a chap on the Pistonheads forum not so long ago who was livid when his treasured Z3 came back with an advisory, having previously kept a clean sheet. (Everyone told him to man up and get over it, if I recall correctly.) |

No doubt I would be very peed off to say the least but for me part of the challenge in this game is to maintain the car to a standard where I pre-empt and fix problems before I get an advisory. So far so good but there will come a day, I'm sure

I have a sneaking feeling that day is a long way off Nobby.
