hey folks,
well i took the ph1 in for the mot today, and was quite surprised with the result. i did expect the car to fail and thought it would cost me a fair bit to get it through. but no.. even after sitting next to a river for a year before i bought it... it only failed on both numberplate lights and both cv boots everything else passed, even the emmisions were fine after it being chipped. so im over the moon. not got a quote for it yet but it'll be cheap.
cheers rossco

Cv boots should not cost to much! lights are probably just bulbs or bad connections.

Its nice when they suprise you like that

Makes keeping the faith so much easier

nice one matey! cv boots are something like £6 each! and bubls are only a couple of quid! always nice when its a sub £50 extra job!

yup certainly does considering it is an f reg with 106 k on clock and its basically failed on a fuse and some rubber but the rest intact and working.

My P2'd TD just went through with no advises, which was nice.

The valver's in at the end of the month, I'm sure that'll fail in style. I've neglected it for too long.

Result though mate, you must be chuffed!

My G reg 405 Mi16 somehow managed to pass 3 years in a row but this last time it failed on a couple of minor things.

Our phase 1 passed this week - only did 1200 miles between MOTs
