I had a K11 Super S, and MrsF has a K10 as her first car - we gave that to MIL. Nippy little thing was my Super S. Lovely 9 spoke alloys.

I had a SPort SR Micra - it was baby blue metallic
and a LOT faster than it looked
It REALLY "annoyed" one bloke in a Merc who tried to pass me on a slip road onto a motorway
I put my foot down as soon as I got onto the slip road - so before he did
but he just assumed a baby blue Micra would be slow

in the end I had to brake when he pulled over because he had not checked he was passed me when we got near the end

but he got behind be and was flashing his light and blowing his horn while waving like a mad man all the way up the Motorway

basically he made a mistake and could not accept that this bloke in a Micra had been faster than he thought and he had just assumed he was miles ahead!!


It was a great car!

Looks like a very clean MOT history, some B.S about offside wiper not clearing properly, in 2019 & 2024, I mean why not ring up & ask if the owner wants a new wiper blade fitting before failing it, otherwise no advisories from 1st MOT

There's a Ford KA now for sale from a dealer near me. I like KA's but he's a real dodgy dealer, so best not to bother looking at it! Last March while waiting for my car to be MOT'd in the garage next door to him I decided to look at cars for sale on his forecourt. After about 5 minutes he came out of his portakabin thingy saying 'What are you looking at my cars for'?! in an aggressive manner. Well why do you think I'm looking at cars for sale duh'! 😏 He definitely needs to brush up on his sales technique!😁

I sincerely hope you slapped him with your duelling gauntlett and demanded satisfaction!

As said, the model before, the K11 was fantastic. Had 2 of them and they were bombproof mechanically. Haven't a clue about the K12 though, which is when Renault got involved, and I switched to other Japanese car brands. Having said that, this looks like the kind of old used car to buy, hard to find, not many owners and serviced often.

Because theyre not allowed to, and if the customer is a ministry stooge the tester can get in the sheet for it. To my eye that means the tester is doing it by-the-book, which would be my preference.

I was under the impression that the car was serviced & MOT'd at the same time, surely it would be picked up on the service, before heading off to the MOT bay
