Nip down to the MOT station have a quiet word with one of the testers collegues(find out what he drinks)

Then tomorrow when you turn up make sure there is a bottle of it on the passenger seat with a little note>

Works for me every year ;D

well she Failed lol, not as bad as i thought if im honest. 2 new back tyres needed and front barely passed (so that'l need changing) paint is just flaking off the brake pipe (slight corrosion but nothing major) which Graham said he can smoother in grease to prevent further damage happening.
so apart from the £100 bill for the tyres which its booked in for tomorrow, it'l be quick scoot back to get tyres checked by MR Mot man and should have 12 months again, before the other ones even run out ;D

Not bad for an 11 year old car :y
