Also no test of the wipers, altho' it was persisting it down when I arrived at the centre so screen was showing the wiper sweep. It was also nice to see the underside of the car, and all looks well, the tester said it was one of the cleanest he'd seen :thumbleft:
Congrats Lindsay!

I had booked mine in for its Mot today also, checked the functions yesterday. Screen washers and concentrate weren't working on the driver’s side, spent 2hrs or so sorting it ready for today.

Checked the old certificate this morning to find the current ticket is good till end of JUNE!! Phoned the garage to re-arrange early in June, didn’t have it in me to tell them why.

What the hell you can't get it right all the time, spent that hour or so driving through the countryside with the top down, bloody great, gives me the biggest grin every time, and I've had the car for nearly 10 yrs.

That's what I call a good investment.

Hope to see you guys at Hatton Country World in June.
