mot'd the indy today, its on a q plate so no emmisions test, didnt even check the lights, I had the whole garage standing round asking questions, and then they announced that they would have to do the brake test down the road with a special machine, of course I said ok, so he jumped in the passenger seat, when i got back I had to take everbody for a bloody test drive!!! but it did pass, I love these 7's

I am going to insist they use a Tapley Meter to test the Brakes

My moT centre is less than a mile away
So any excuse to put a few more miles on the clock must be good as I have to run in the V8. That will force me to keep my righ foot slightly in the air!.

Also have booked the Last Mot slot on Sat, so I can hopefully get the Brakes balanced on their rollers, and the lights aligned. I am expecting a little attention on Sat.. especially driving through the village. Just hope it dont rain.

Should hear about a SVA date by the end of this week or early next week... Not in time for Stoneleigh

Was the MOT station you used on the new computer MOT's yet or the old style?

It was on the new computer, but the computer was down so they did a hand written one, its a good thing really because the tester didnt know what to do with it, I think that the new computer system may cause alot of probs with kit cars and alike.

Computer was dead simple for mine...system didn't know what it was so he created a new profile, and printed the certificate...dead easy...
