MOT - I'm confused
« on: October 02, 2004, 14:38:06 »
The disco has just been in for its MOT.  The chap handed me a piece of paper with "MOT Test Certificate" on it and that was it.  I thought the general gist of the way things worked was for them to fill in a notification of failure, me to go home and do some more swearing at the vehicle then take it back in.

They've never passed a vehicle of mine first time before.  This is odd.

This happened to me recently :lol:  :lol: . However I suspect he was being somewhat charitable given the amount of work I have had to do on it since it came back :shock: .
