As above..

I have had it nearly a year now and it's time for me to put it through it's test for the first time since owning it.. has been great fun even though the weather was s**t last year.

Wish me luck

Just make sure you check that the MOT station has low-rise lift that you will be able to get on to. The first test centre I went to with my car said "no f'#$ing way you'll get that onto the car lift" and sent me somewhere else....

I was at a testing station a couple of years ago, while they were trying to get a Ferrari onto their ramps - highly amusing! Several bods lying on the floor, trying to make sure that nothing got caught as it went on.

And when they lifted it up they couldn't see anything, as the entire underside was covered by a tray! Not sure how they sorted that one...

Thanks guys, just been checking it over only to find a brake light not working and the accelerator pedal sticking when I went for a quick spin. (don't think she wants to go!!)
