Woo-Hoo! MOT Time!
- Thread starter zarquon
- Start date
I was a bit late this year, usually go for the earliest date poss as mentioned on the cert. First of the new-fangled cheapo certs today too...
Well done on the pass mate, but, I would be getting the camber checked owith weel alignment. Tyres are not really cheap these days.
Tyres never have been cheap, annoyingly. But yeah, I plan on a quick squizz & a second opinion from me friendly local tyre place
If I get a minute later today or tomorrow, I may dig thru & post up me list of advisories over the years. Remarkably few ISTR

2001 and 2002 the car was probably under three years old. The first MOT is due when the car is three years old.

Therefore its first MOT was due in 2003.
