That big fat grin on my MOT tester's face again ...

[Tempest 0]

... when he got out of my Mk1 Rocco, after he'd taken it out for a spin armed with a decelerometer, as the Mk1 won't go onto the brake test rollers (too low at the front, not much higher where my manifold comes down, either as i noticed today, on entering their forecourt and scraping on a speed bump :mad: - no damage, though, phew).

 

He was in right bad mood when I met him, had fallen out with the boss, was f-ing and blinding like mad, but once he'd finished the little drive in mine, he was all cheered up again, big grin stretching from ear to ear. "That's how cars should be, oh how I hate testing all those everyday sheds I get all the time, and each one in just half an hour, which isn't enough, which is why I fell out with the boss today!".

 

OK, mate, can I have my Rocco back now, please? :lol:

 

Passed for another year, no probs either on the emissions :-)

 

Tomorrow it's the Mk2 Storm's turn ...
