Well its that time again, am taking the Golf in for its anual test tommorow. Have been quitely confident as its all up together really.

But was playing with a 306 GTi 6 off the light just now and suddenly remembered something- My rear engine mount is completely shot :|

Not directly a fail but there are ways that they could fail the car for this.

Also got to remember to clear the washer jets out in the morning.

Well lets see what happens :roll:

Should be ok, the guy who does my MOT's prefers to pass a car rather than fail it, wont bend any rules but hes not the type to fail a car to get the extra work there so busy they dont want the work.

Keep hold of him - honest MOT'ers are difficult to find.

Guess the chap who did mine then was a bit harsh for failing it on a sun strip then!

woo hoo it passed-

only advisory's were a shot rear strut and 3 bulbs out (wich were working last night), also a bit of play in the steering rack. But i think they always put that to make it look better.
