Good for another year. Kind of..
Mot day.
Tester was a bit of a **** head. " I'm not going to give you any advisories But, one of your indicators is orange enough and your number plates are a bit perished and need replacing." Well that's all good then, couldn't tell me such an old car could be bang on. Drew out the garage, stopped for traffic and the bloody handbrake cable snapped. Well that was close. Back home with a full MOT and a new handbrake cable ordered. That's next weekend spoken for.

Quite a lot of testers really seem to pull extra hard on the handbrake of these cars, as they tend to give lowish readings on the brake test rollers. One year I didn't bother cleaning and adjusting the handbrake shoes before the MOT, and the tester pulled the lever so high it cracked the plastic surround in the centre console.
