So is this the same one that there was a bit of discussion on a few months ago? I said something about bad maintenance and got ripped into by the previous owner and yourself?? (can't remember if it was both of you or wether I'm talking about another vehicle entirely?)

It could always be a ringer, that way the previous mot info wouldn,t match up with the repairs.
I,m not helping much am I.. :oops:

Where was it mot'd ???
Take it back to them and show them,,,,
You know the previous owner, how long did they have it?

Personally mate, I'd strip ALL of your off road gear off the truck and swap the wheels for some [!Expletive Deleted!] ones, THEN approach VOSA and the DVLA.
If your car turns out to be a ringer then you'll probably lose it, that's why you need to get the good stuff of it.
I'm sorry to be the bearer of bad news but you have to be prepared for it, at least you have the previous owners info and address to pass on.
Of course you could always have a 'quiet' word with the previous owner and ask him to replace your vehicle and to compensate you for your lost time in repairing said dodgy vehicle, then you could scrap the dodgy car knowing you've taken a questionable motor of the road.
Or go and speak to a solicitor, they aren't as expensive as people make out and if you have a solid case then the costs will be charged to the opposite side.

I might be a bit thick here, I thought with the new computerised system you couldnt falsify an MOT :?
