    In case anyone is interested, I have collated the mileage recorded at the time of the MOT of all STRs which passed their MOT in 2019 from anonymised data held by the Department of Transport. Although there are no doubt errors in the database and mileage is not the only consideration, I think it...

    Have a query re the provision of the goo that car manufacturers supply instead of a spare wheel and the issue of MOT. In the good old days the 'spare' had to be fit and ready to be used, if there were doubts over the legality of the spare you would just remove it from the car as having no spare...

    I thought it may be useful to have the current MOT regulations easily available so that you don't get any nasty shocks when yours is due. This is the link to the Driver and Vehicle Standards Agency website where the current regulations and other links are available, as they may change from time...

    Hi all, I have to have my 2.7d S type with electronic parkbrake VRT (Irish equivalent of the MOT) tested shortly, and was wondering how the tester would test the handbrake efficiency. S type Jags are very few and far between in this neck of the woods (Co. Donegal) and I am a bit...
