Well for the first time in 25 years I am having to put my car in for an MOT. It would appear the times and contacts have gone when I lasted needed to phone a mate and pick up my MOT in the pub. I now own an old car and it needs a ticket.

I think I have found/rectified the only defect, it goes in at 12. Will it or wont it? It is a bit like waiting for exam results.

BTW, 2003 clio. Clever sod said it had failed when I booked it in as they only do cars.
