Title: Cabbie in for MOT
Post by: Bronze MK1 Cab on 10 March 2005, 08:41
Dropped her off last night at Dubvelopments for it's MOT.  I know that it's gonna fail on a few bits and pieces  :sad:

So I've got the girlfriends J reg 1.4 Astra Expression today!  :laugh: What a beaut it is  :wink: It's got more rust then metal and the engine is about to say 'no more'. It smokes like a b1tch in the mornings  :laugh: Still I shouldn't complain, at least I've got transport to get to work!

Hope it's not gonna cost too much to get through the MOT  :undecided:
