That work out that I would save £21! They dont own a landy do they!

Are Britain's motorists really that gullible? They are not going to save £465 million a year or even £21
The two yearly MOT will cost £125 for starters :roll: :roll:
:oops: :oops: Forgot to add > after labour gets back in on the strength of it :lol: :lol:

yup, 1st landy (I was had!!!)
failed on loads of stuff, including a main chasis rail that had craked in the middle!

My mates Disco failed on severe corrosion and the MOT guy said that in a crash it would have dissintegrated killing him and his 2 young children. I hate the MOT but at least when it (eventually) passes I know that I'm reasonably safe for 12 months.
Jas278:
12 months , not too much to ask 1 inspection per year, I suppose were lucky they dont wabt to change it too 6 monthly............................................................DONT TELL THEM :!:

Having travelled round Europe a fair bit, I am never ceased to be amazed at the amount of 'bags of cr*p' cars there are on the road over there. The problem is that now we have more 'EU citizens' turning up in the UK, from even less careful countries, I can see the situation on the roads of the UK getting worse than they are now.
I have been involved in 'road safety matters' for over 15 years and have seen some real horrific examples of badly maintanied vehicles that made my blood run cold, especially on cars and trucks from the new Eastern European member states.
Keep it at 12 monthly intervals for safety's sake.
