    M.O.T Day!

    Well today is the day the car finally goes for its m.o.t after being worked on for the past 7 months! Took it up this morning and on the way there the steering felt solid the brakes where good and all the indicators worked!
    Tbh more works on the car now than it has ever done! I even managed to fix the rear belts last night! So fingers crossed, still nervous though.

    Insurance certificate? You mean like.. a report to say it's been done properly, for your insurance?
