Post by: Sam on 15 January 2012, 13:01: Chuff: I'm here to ask you a few questions sir, we have evidence that you are not carrying out MOT's to the standard that VOSA expects from you. Would you admit that now and revoke your licence or do we have to take you to court?

Mr x: Yes, ok sorry I admit it.

Chuff: Ok, one further question. When can I book then?

Did this yesterday with a SAAB estate just off the Frognall A20 turnoff.

Quite amazed myself at how the Golf, 5 people in it, towed the Sweedish ship straight to the SAAB dealership just down the road.

Anyone round here will know the turn off and can go see the SAAB in the disabled bay if they'd like evidence.

From the roundabout to the BP Garage where there is a SAAB garage.

Saw him broken down on the roundabout and thought we'd lend a hand. I've been stuck a few times and nobody has stopped and know what it's like.
