[Vwdiesel] Quantum good...

[McCanless, James]

I fondly remember MOT inspections...not. It was a little more challenging being an American. I am not saying they were not fair. Some places did not take it to the Nth degree. Then there is the Road Tax, TV (Colour or B&W) Tax, Garden Hose Tax...

Yesterday I put my 'Q' through it's annual Ministry of Transport test. Sitting there in the waiting room is like being inthe dentists... Strange really as it only cost me £100 some 4 years ago. Car before me was a nice metallic saloon car about 10 years old. Looked immaculate. My Q is formerly known as white but was now has a dalmation effect of brown patches with (Up until yesterday when I actually washed it ) a green aphid poo roof. Anyway car in front was pulled off after 5 minutes and I quipped I hope mine passes that easily...er nope it had failed on serious rust under drivers feet, and under the sills.... Mine went in and I hid round the corner... I thought I could hear lots of 'yeps' and a few other mumblings tappings etc... Head buried in a book "Inchley's Theory of Heat Engines @1940...I didnt hear the tester calling me over. Then I heard my name... Oh shit I thought... "Come and look at this Mr Shepherd".. What the tester was pointing to was  the antirollbar clips...one broken and the other loose...AND THAT WAS IT... about £6 to sort 8OD As a matter of interest here's some numbers: Emissions K=1.39 Brakes 160 160
            100 100
            100 140
Happy Chappy Mark
