Passed MoT on Sat

Title says it all.
MoT passed Sat am, before I went to Stoneleigh. MoT place is only 1 mile up the road. It's funny even after living in the village for 15 years.. I made some basic navigational errors.

Really good ride albeit short.
The car is NOT disapointing at all..
Just cant wait to get it SVA'd a week tomorrow... Just hope it passes.

I now need plastic surgery to take the grin off my face and to amputate the two tails I have grown.
The performance is the dogs dangly bits..
And I was running in as well

Do you have to get an MOT before SVA?
I have just put in for my sva test and I thought that they would advise on MOT or not?

No, not needed.
For peace of mind, though, I'd reccommend it, BUT ask tester not to issue a certificate or put it onto the computer or you'll be in danger of needing one for the first 3 years.

Easy really....
Mot Station 1 mile away
SVA Station 98 miles round trip.

I did it for peace of mind ready for the SVA Trip, its going to be Q plate and MoT every year, so nothing lost.

Also a good excuse for a short drive. It was worth the £40 for the drive alone

Anyone know a cheap Plastic Surgeon?.. I need one to have a "Grin Reduction" and to amputate the two Tails that are still wagging in overdrive since Saturday

Its funny I must have a speedo problem, as I clocked 7 miles doing a 1 mile round trip to the MoT station. I had a few "Navigational Errors" in the village where I have lived for the past 15 years

Looks like all systems go. Well done. First drive is fantastic.

Ref MOT - i think you may have just forced yourself into a yearly one. Even with Q plates its no MOT for 3 years afaik.
