Took my car in for mot on Thursday, bit nervous as its my 1st one since I've had this car. The good thing is while its being tested we only have to cross over the railway bridge & we are right on the beach (unfortunately tide was right in) Katy didn't care  Love Struck

I couldn't figure out why there was a black line all along the high tide mark, but on closer inspection I saw it was charred wood then it dawned on me, it was bits of Eastbourne pier that had shifted our way. Mot place is about 15 miles east of the pier.

Bugger about the MOT - on the plus side looks like you had a fun time!

Is it going to be overly expensive to fix? x

Great time on the beach Janey but car, the tow bar is obscuring the number plate. Trevor would of taken it off to pass it but it also failed on ball joint  Sad The really annoying thing is its a Suzuki Vitara on ebay they looked really cheap at around £20 max so I said to oh I would get both done. Looking into it, up to 1998 they are just a small joint, mine is a 2003 & I have to replace the whole ****** arm at the cheapest £98  angry

Trouble is she doesn't know when to stop, especially when she's running on stones as her pads get really sore. Car needs to be done by Wednesday as its booked back in for a re-test. Hopefully part will be here Monday & we will remove tow bar for test then put it back on  Laughing

Could you move the number plate so the tow bar doesn't obscure it ?

I'm surprised they failed the car because of this  Surprised
