MOT roulette.

[Drago]

I've taken my elderly neighbours Kia C apostrophe D for an MOT. He's just had a knee replacement and can't do it himself.

Its a tidy enough car, 11 plate, petrol, I don't know what engine but its possibly a 1.2 as its glacially slow.

I'm sat in the waiting room now...will it pass, or will it fail?

The N/S splined sprocket end nut seems a little slack...
Did you screw it in half a turn before you booked it in?

 

[AndyRM]

42.

At least a 1.4. And yes, they're slow. I had one on a 3-day test drive when they launched and wasn't impressed.

 

[Drago]

Ah, well it feels like a slug compared to my 1.4 and that's no rocket ship.

I'm starting to feel nervous and its not even my motah!

Pass with a couple of advisories.

 

[T.M.H.N.E.T]

Pass with advisory

 

[classic33]

Wipers will require replacement, advisory on front nearside tyre.

And you'll be having kittens.

 

[screenman]

Pass.

 

[Pale Rider]

Pass.

The question's not that hard, would you like me to repeat it?

 

[Electric_Andy]

Number plate too small.
Exhaust noisy

 

[Drago]

Failed, bottom ball joint dust covers deteriorated allowing ingress of dirt.

Advisory - slight exhaust blow.

Bugger! I was just typing exactly that but my fingers are too cold and too sausage like to type more quickly

 

[smokeysmoo]

Advisory - slight exhaust blow.

Perhaps @Fnaar could ask Miss Goodbody to advise on this?
