found out yesterday that my mot ran out in the beginning of may! iv been driveing about unaware that it had ran out. shes booked in next week. if i had been stopped it would have ment points mean prizes!! how lucky is that?

my aunt drove her vw sharan with no MOT for about 7 months lmao she forgot that it ran out, when she booked it in (thinking that the mot is almost out, when its been out for ages), the tester pointed out to her that her mot was finished almost 7 months ago LOL in my opinion, extremly lucky

i have instructed the bloke that he will do whatever it takes to get it through. rear axel bushes, slightly corroded near side brake pipe, headlamp aim, due to the engine haveing so many oil leaks(hence the engine swap) he will have to adjust the co to get it through, i just want this @ucking 325 to be rebuilt, leak free, new gaskets, might even take the head to norwich engine centre and have new rings and valves re seated, also a de coke. gotta have patience!

you will get it sorted...as i always say nothing happens in one day

the story doesnt end there my friend, then its off to the body shop for new inner+outer arches on the rear, plus the petrol filler neck needs attention. i have spent allot of money on this 320/325. all the parts the bloke will be useing for the engine rebuild will be genuine bmw parts. oh well, there is no point in being the richest man in the grave yard.

believe it or not, not having a mot is not endorsable with points. defective brakes/steering/tyres, is but if just no mot then its only a fine or a letter of warning

i live quite far away from some zoners that would be able to do the job, i would be quite happy to line a zoners pocket if the job was done right and to a high standard! if anyone feels that they are up to the job by all means get in touch with me.

put it in your sig ;) that way everyone will see it

the b20's got her mot at 10:45 today!!! shitting it.

straight through. no advisories either. chuffed.

Its good it passed

I hate mot's

i was sweating it. he said ''we dont see many in this good condition'' i said look under the rear arch. lol, he also looked under the car at the front and said ''so what havent you replaced?''

excellent news that the car passed
