hi

the mot & tyre change is not till saturday. i'm hoping that if they could mot and change tyres before 12:30 i could also tax the car at the post office in town and return home fully sorted.


but i really really wanna make sure that i'm able to drive it to mot in next town with no tax cos i'm getting mixed answers.


guys at work and me dad reckin the car can't be driven on road or towed by another car cos of no tax, sounds like they're suggesting a trailer.


mot guy says it's ok to drive there with no tax long as it's for the mot appointment


dvla website mentions too that a car can be driven to mot garage for appointment, although didn't say if thats with or without tax disc.


maybe i should ring couple mot centres or local coppa to verify?


btw if mot finishes beyond 12:30pm (after post office closes so i'd hav to apply tax on tues instead) i could drive the car back home with insurance and new mot right?


yea once all this is done it's virtually a new conditioned-like car:k11motors

and i'll be like this face :laugh: on me b-day.


Update on tday:


at work i sand blasted & painted the battery tray, twas all rusty so thought i'd do it up. looks nice n clean.



as well as the oxygen sensor connector bracket, throttle cable holder bracket & Alternator cable bracket



sprayed up the welded areas & G-clamps holding the PAS bracketbeing epoxied to the cross member



close up



other side



sprayed the welds round back n bottom



g-clamp holding PAS bracket



zip tied PAS pipe to hold in place



completed car



few plastic arch liners left to do


i only have 3 hours of daylight after work so it twas a mad dash to do it all in time.


a thing buggin me is the welder musta misaligned the upper right of the panel cos the inner side of the right headlight is poking out slightly so the light's like pointing right by 1deg.
