robrado974 1 Posted November 9, 2012 Well its mot time on tuesday, ,due to lack of funds i had to sorn the vr around a year ago?. Now back on an even keel and cant wait to be driving her again . I no longer have access to a garage[dont think the ex would let me use hers anymore lol] and dont really fancy doing a service on the drive ,so my friendly mechanic who does the harder stuff i cant do, is going to do it . So fresh oil , filter, plugs , gearbox oil and g12 and she will be tip top . The battery has been on trickle charge , put that back in today and did a sneaky drive round the block !. So its fingers crossed for a pass on tuesday . Looking forward to a good 100 mile drive to clean out the cobwebs .Rob Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tonytiger 0 Posted November 9, 2012 Some of us have never had the luxury of a garage, but at least a driveway is better than nowhere at all. Admittedly it's less attractive doing a service on the drive at this time of year but I've just done one on my saxo, it wasn't that bad. So just get on with it. ;-) Good luck with the MOT though!
