Title: Second MOT :-) :-)
Post by: asathorny on January 15, 2014, 12:26:00: Got my shiny red one back from the car doctor after he had serviced it and done the second MOT (Ministry of Transport Test) the testing tech only had one comment which was verbal and nothing written on the comments side of the pass certificate.

Is comment went along the lines of 'let me know if your thinking of selling that car wontcha, it's hardly run in yet'

The cost was £200 all done and dusted. Hyundai wanted aprox £400 to do the same work.

I know that some will want to come and do some shroud waving, but, the car has performed faultlessly since day one, except when some dope (me) didn't slam the tailgate down properly <sigh>. On that occasions my pals on this forum gave me loads of good advice on the essential checks when leaving the car and nothing like that has happened since.

So, as of now, I am a happy camper :victory: :victory: :victory: :victory: :victory: :victory:

Nope, nothing, the new battery was the solution. The MOT man said 'it's prefect' and you know what, he's correct in every particular :goodjob: :goodjob: :goodjob:
