MOT time again

Post by ianst0028 » Sat Feb 11, 2017 1:18 pm

Well the time has come for me to stand in a cold garage watching someone prod and poke my X5 before giving me both a heart attack and a huge quote
But today all I got was a minor scare and a pass  :D :)

I took my 318ci once to kwikfit and they failed my mot because of a smudge on the number plate (which was totally readable and looked fine to me).

Thankfully I found an honest MOT garage and have been taking my cars to them every year since 2012.

No offence, but taking any car to Kwikfit for an MOT is just asking for trouble ....
