Your fleet running reports
Re: Your fleet running reports
Well the M3 has FAILED it’s MOT...
A bushing of some kind (fair enough) and number plates!!!
I’ve had these plates on for 3 years and never had even an advisory on them - the spacing is strictly wrong (should be a bigger gap between the 8 and the D) so a fail. Luckily I had the old horrors in the boot so I can swap them over (temporarily).

Re: Your fleet running reports
They bloody should- on grounds of good taste, but apparently not, I grabbed them Out and they checked.
Re: Your fleet running reports
Clearly it was supposed to say something? I have engaged JL mode, but no luck so far.....
Re: Your fleet running reports
MOT tester’s a bit of a dick to fail you on that.
How about not having a sig at all?

Robden, Roden, Throbbin .. ? I dont get it
Re: Your fleet running reports
Why?
What if he’d allowed it to pass? Rich - with his gay abandon for the law - leaves the MOT centre sideways and gets pulled at 71mph in a 40.
The cops see a new MOT has just been awarded, despite the flagrant plate spacing felony staring at them.
After a DVLA investigation, the Garage lose their license to perform MOTs. Within 2 months the business is on its knees. No money to pay the mortgage. His wife leaves him. His kids deny ever having a father.
One month later he awakes to the sound of a fruity V8. He rolls over, and the now empty bottle of meths spills through the railing, dropping 30m into the cold Thames below. He rubs his eyes and kicks the cardboard duvet off a little. He can see it is Rich. Phone to his ear whilst trundling along in the traffic. He’s laughing. Rich drops a window and throws out his litter. Cans of Rich Energy and a Ginsters wrapper. Some law abider can pick them up. He revs, drops the clutch, and power slides round the bend leaving the bridge. Still on his phone. The ex-garage owner spits rubber fragments from his lips.
An impressionable hot hatch behind tries to emulate the notorious criminal: but he doesn’t know he has WWD. He understeers wildly across the junction into the puppy walker passing by. The human just squeezes out of the way. But the puppies.....
The driver exits. Shaken. But.... he’s laughing! Just like Rich was!
The floating is beautiful before the Impact. The water is cold. But strangely welcoming. Sweet. Release.

The butterfly effect is a beautiful thing.

Especially to then pass a plate with the wrong font. Perhaps he was hoping to make £20 on a new set of plates?

Struggled to get some standard b&q 2.4m lengths of wood in the mito, so picked up some proper Alfa bars up locally for less than half the new cost.

Re: Your fleet running reports
Second attempt at MoTing the Spazda this mornig...
Everything went ok, the repaired fan kept the temps down but I'll fit another one. It is not a nice car to drive on the street it's hot, noisey and uncomfortable, I seriously want to get a trailer so I can tow it with the van.
I've found a company in the UK that make some nice looking bonnet vents that might help with the temps:

The one on my bike is tiny yet gets let through.
Last time I got done with my private plate I got the copper to measure the distance between the 1 and 3 making a B - it was 3mm wrong
