As part of the sale of my car i offered to put a full ticket on it so it's booked in for 8.30 tomorrow morning.
I don't THINK it will have any problems but you know what it's like, i'll be cra*ping myself until i have the new MOT in my hands.
Wish us luck

Good luck.If it does fail then probably a number plate bulb or similare?
BUT we all know it will PASS.

I am sure it will be ok. You must be fairly confident, or else you would not be selling it with a full MOT?
If it does need loads of welding, new discs+calipers, steering rack, ball joints, shock absorbers and broken springs replacing along with a new exhaust???????
Them i would pull out of the sale.
Only joking it will fine.

Dont worry. Dont forget to get the engine nice and warm so the emissions will be okay. Forgot that last year and it only just passed.

That is already agreed with the buyer.
I'm quietly confident, i got the tracking done the other week and they checked all the joints and bushes underneath and everything was sound, brakes are fine, all lights working, warning lights go out as they should, no rust underneath. Only thing i think it needs is 2 new tyres which the garage is doing before the test

I do the italian tune up every time,and really hit the brakes hard to clear them.Mine tend to build up quite a bit of surface rust due to inactivity.
Let us know what the emmisions come out like so we can compare.
Sounds like a really good car.Maybe you should keep it now it's all up together and with a years mot Lol.

Mmm, well luck has little to do with anything really.
If you offered a full MOT at point of sale, then I guess you were confident that it would pass?
Makes a nice change to hear of a second hand car, that the owner is setting up for a safe and pleasnt sale:thumbs_up:

Well done mate a testament to you keeping it up to scratch.Always amazes me how a tester can be suprised when my shiny clean cars go in and passes.Well in the old days that is.The guy who does mine knows I do my utmost to get things done.
