    Will it pass?

    My £100-special Pug 306D is currently facing the daunting gauntlet that is the MOT, so to amuse myself while I sit at work awaiting the result with baited breath I thought I'd ask the collective wisdom of the s2forum - will it pass?

      Isn't it kinda win-win?

      If it passes, you have a (semi)usable car.

      If it fails, it's one less French P.O.S. on the roads.

            306s are quite bullet-proof (in a tin can kinda way and despite inconsequential parts falling off) so I think that the french sack of merde will pass!

                          To be fair the guy who rebuilt it is my usual mechanic and generally he is very good, I'd imagine he'll sort it pretty sharpish it's just a pain in the *** that he is on holiday untill the end of the month!
