Got the roc booked in for it`s mot on Sat morning ,can`t beleive i have had it on the road for a year now nearly,gone very quick !
Think it should go through ok,don`t seem to be having any probs at the mo,well other than needing to sort out the heater fan,which can wait until it starts getting a bit colder
Does not run out until the 25th of this month,but have decided that it can go now,just incase anything needs doing.

Cheers Danny,hope that it sails through,spending stupid amounts of money at the moment just trying to keep my head above water,to the tune of £1600 per month then plus another £150 for tax and mot !

De De De it passed ! Had 2 get 2 new tires on the back,as they were about 12 yrs old and cracked and perished cost £111.it sticks to the road like glue now

Got an advisory on a loud exhaust,and advisory on a slight oil leak,coming from the stupid sandwich plate.
All good now though ! 12 more months of fun to look forward too,have only done 2793 miles last year,i am insured for 3000,but 6 months of last years ticket i had a terrible oil leak,so didn`t use it so much.might have to up my miles a bit for this next 12 month stint

Nice one.
Insurance costs rise quite steeply once you start upping the mileage. That's what I found anyways...
