Northwarks Posted May 17, 2016 Share Posted May 17, 2016 Westy passed her MoT again this year with no advisories - always a huge relief. Theres a new tester at my local garage, he was amazed at the condition for a 20yr old car ... just don't think they see much beyond your bog standard tintop at this garage so to see a Westfield is a bit of a novelty and they were crawling all over it and asking questions. He'd never seen a QR Wheel, so was intrigued how that worked and why I needed it, I was worried he was going to find an issue with it and he did keep taking it off checking the locking mechanism as spins until it locks - but all good Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tisme Posted May 17, 2016 Share Posted May 17, 2016 Well done - I took mine for it's MOT today as well - all fine It was great to see all the mechanics faces light up when I go there - makes a change from the car clones they normally see......

Man On The Clapham Omnibus Posted May 17, 2016 Share Posted May 17, 2016 Mine is overdue but as it's SORNed I won't be bothering until a track day is due and I get a chance to drive it on the road without VED as it will be a booked test appointment.

Julie Hall - WSCC AO Representative Posted May 17, 2016 Share Posted May 17, 2016 Well done on passing your MOT, don't forget to email me a copy of your certificate to enter my competition - 'Julie's Battle of the Odo's' or give me a copy at Silverstone. Mine is due next month, I have to book about a week in advance to get in and hope it doesn't rain that day. It costs £30. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Julie - I'd like to think that this will be the year I put a fair few miles on the clock but I suspect I've a lot of catching up to do (I think I'd probably win a competition for the least number of miles in 14 years of ownership !! ) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iowlee Posted May 18, 2016 Share Posted May 18, 2016 It is obviously that time of year. Mine passed yesterday as well. Only just managed over 200 miles since the last one! Lee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Julie Hall - WSCC AO Representative Posted May 18, 2016 Share Posted May 18, 2016 Don't worry about the low mileage please just enter my competition. If it doesn't take off it might get stopped and then nobody will win a prize. I am happy to give it my time until people get used to it, but only while the powers that be let me. Nobody has entered it yet, so 200 miles would win it and deservedly so, remember Mr Average has never even sat in a kit car so be careful where you get your yard stick from.

Robin Parker (Red Spider) - Yorkshire AO Posted May 21, 2016 Share Posted May 21, 2016 Mine passed yesterday with 3 advisories, Oil leak, it is a Crossflow, slight corrosion on brake pipe ferrules and no visible locking devices on brake calipers. The same 3 as last year, and the year before. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Julie Hall - WSCC AO Representative Posted May 21, 2016 Share Posted May 21, 2016 Russ, Wait until you get your MOT certificate in October 2016 and submit that, please. In fact, I have a cunning plan my lord, come out with us a lot and put your mileage up, just to make sure. Peak District miles should count for double really, don't think I will get away with that one though! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
