Default MOT Passed!
My Volvo passed its MOT yesterday - 24 years old now and 127000 miles so plenty of life left hopefully. The car got two advisories, but was described as an 'indestructible tank' by the the garage

The two advisories were:

- slight fluctuation at both rear brakes during brake test
- Fluid leak, but not excessive slight, around oil filter housing assembly (8.4.1 (a) (i))

Thanks to those on this forum who've helped with the niggles I've had to sort out on the car this year

Congratulations. I fear one of mine will fail next month as it now has a rust hole in the front nearside wing. If there’s not too much else wrong I’ll get it fixed.
