MOT time!
I am up, dressed and waiting. Someone is coming to pick up my car this morning. It is MOT time! It worked very well last year...my car went off and I had the drivers car in its place. It came home after I had paid for everything that needed doing and all was well. I have not actually driven far this year...I have mostly stayed at home.And that has suited me . The whole system of my car being driven off for a service as well as the MOT has worked well in the past but it is not cheap! Getting it to the garage in Truro was something my husband enjoyed...he chatted to the men as they worked...for him it was as much social as anything else. For me seeing it disappear and being left with another rather up market car in its place was fine ...it was finding the fee at the end which was painful! It cant have hurt too much though as this was my choice again this year! So fingers crossed...it wont be too bad! And I pay over the phone...which makes it feel like toy money at the time! SO...ON WE GO...fingers crossed!

Good morning Jean
I look forward to - hopefully- reading that your car has passed its MOT with flying colours and little impact on your bank balance! 🤞
All was well...and fast. My car was picked up, tested and brought home inside a couple of hours... last year it too a week! So I’m mobile again!
That is a good result. I take my car to the garage around the corner, which is family run and for the past 25 years or so, has tested, MOT'D and Repaired a good few cars we have had.
Given that it is s 2 minute walk from the house would getting someone to collect and return it would be an irrational use of time. And would likely raise an unnecessary extra charge.
Albeit, once a car broke down at home and they brought their recovery vehicle to collect it and sorted it the same day.
Normally the car goes in at about 8 am and is ready for collection by 2 pm, unless they have to wait for spares.
I am glad it went well for you and I hope that the hole in your bank balance isn't to hefty.
Hooray!! Good news about your car 🎉🎉
