    MOT ran out on the 26th Jan 2005 !!

    Realised last night that it had ran out. Just got back from the MOT station, PASSED with flying colours. Thats a relief.

    Only £35 down though.

      My TDi has been without MOT for the last 6 months and the previous owner was still driving it around like that! Tax has just ran out so I am working on getting it legal again. LOL.

          I think I might have spent a couple of months last year MOTless.

          I lost the certificate and my MOT man had a computer upgrade and lost all his old files so couldn't remember when it was due. Strangely enough it passed first time. :mischeif:

              wow...around here, those things (especially in cities) don't get overlooked. The city is out to make money...I forgot about my test last year and had a ticket on the car the next morning.

                Here in Spain we don't have to put any tax dix or anything. It you like you can put a sticker with your MOT validity.
                I haven't go to the MOT on a while. I am 2 years late I think. :mischeif:

                Don't want to push my luck, so I am homologating the brakes (we need to homolagate almost everything here ) and hoping they do not notice the RS2 engine at MOT next month

                Think it will be alright with that.

                  I should imagine the "badged" TDI will be a bit different when its back on the road :mischeif:

                    I was going round a corner a bit fast last summer and saw the tax disk plus holder roll along the dash and fly out the window. not had one on since but is all on the computer thing now so guess it doesn't really matter.

                            My MOT's being done on Monday. I'm hoping it'll pass without any problems. There's always stuff i'm worried about, but as my MOT man says, stuff has to be almost falling off to fail. I guess mine never gets that bad. So far, four years, two coupes and one number plate light bulb. Can't complain yet.

                              Watch out mate, you could still possibly get done with a 'failure to display a valid disc'.
