The Soarer is in for an MOT this morning it was collected at 7am this morning and is the first one on the ramp at 7.30. I bloody hate MOT time and waiting for a phone call!

It will be fine according to my crystal ball. Emissions are up but thats because you need to drive it like you stole it before an emissions test. Oh wait they just retested the emissions and its now passed

I remember putting a de-catted 'Lude through an MOT and at the emmissons test the guy scratched his head and said, "Ooooooft, you don't want a print out for this, do ya?"
"No mate" I said
...she passed

Hooray It passed, 2 advisories. Nearside and offside brake disks worn,pitted or scored but not seriously weakened.Happy with my garage picked the car up,took it to the testing station and returned it to me the bill £56.60 inc Vat. MOT was £35 and labour was £18 for pick up and collection 14 mile round trip in a MB Brabus he did not make much on that!. Just the Lude next month now!

BTW I don't understand all this emission stuff
Result CO max limit 3,500 actual value 0.058
" HO " " 1200 " " 39

Does this mean the car is set up OK and running at its optimum efficiency as it only does 13mpg or could it be tweaked to increase fuel economy?
