What's made you grumpy today?

congrats(y) I hope mine passes MOT next week:rolleyes:
When do you have to have the MOT done?
Do you get 2 weeks either side of the date shown?

your ticket should say you can present it a month before due date.

you can pop it in whenever really.

the ONLY TIME you can drive it after the mot has run out is TO the mot station. AND HOME AGAIN IF IT FAILS.

If it fails , you can drive it to a garage for repairs, ONLY IF BOOKED IN. You get stopped and its not booked in for work/retest it will get CRUSHED AS AN UNROADWORTHY VEHICLE. (they won't accept the i'm on my way to the garage now officer blag anymore)

BASICALLY TO AND FROM MOT STATION ONLY, OR GARAGE. But then if you don't get the work done by mot station and by different garage you will have to repay mot fee, do it yourself and its up to mot'ers discression to recharge you or not. let them do the work and re test is free.

NEVER DRIVE AND UN MOT'D CAR TO MOT STATION OR GARAGE WITHOUT BOOKING IT IN. NO BOOKING = UNROADWORTHY VEHICLE ILLIGALLY DRIVEN = CRUSHED. Hope that helps.

The only time you can drive a vehicle without tax, again is to a prebooked mot and home again. as you need the mot for the tax. old bill will argue this, if you get a dopy copper, as I've had this argument and they lost!!!(y)(y);)

regardless of the above, altough without mot or tax or both, you still have to be insured. its the only time the insurance will pay out on untaxed/unmot'd motors as not having mot or tax does make insurance null and void, again unless going to or from garage, again prebooked or everything is void!!

I'm a newbie, and I can't work out how to open a new thread about how to take a steering wheel off a Bravo 97 HGT. Never realised I was that thick.
 
Fluid's assignment, my answer is too high:bang: 101.01% - max is 100%. WTF?! i can't find where i went wrong...(n)
 
Where do I start? Worst day I've had in a long time

Arrived home from work at 5am to discover that some thieving w@*ker has nicked my motorbike. I spent hundreds of hours and god knows how many £££s restoring it only last year. Doubt I'll ever see it again. I'm supposed to be riding to the MotoGP at Le Mans in 5 weeks time, so now have to hope my insurer don't drag their feet and I can find a replacement bike in good time.

And now I have a front left puncture on the Bravo, and the alloy wheeel is seized to the hub. Needless to say it's raining and I got soaked trying to release the wheel. What sort of imbecile had this car before me? :bang:

And my marine angelfish has developed an appetite for very expensive corals and is trying to ruin my fishtank.

Somebody pass me a drink please :(

I would advise getting a search post spread across motorbike forums etc, you would be surprised at how many i've seen that have actually been found by other forum members. S*** luck though mate, hope you find it.

Get a hammer out for the wheel/hub issue?
 
i would love to service my own car when i get home in a couple of weeks but im not confident enough to do it and scared of buggering something up

means i have to hand it over to a garage and pay labour :(
