The Bangers MOT

After 18 months of deep sleep and with a new insurance certificate it was time to wake the banger up from her snooze this morning and take her for an MOT test.

She didnt come out of hibernation without a fight though, obviously prefering the warmth and comfort of her garage to the cold october morning outside. We had to jump start her from my trusty Nissan but that meant threading the Nissan down the driveway (the Fiestas old home) she only just fits into too, to reach the bangers lair.

Eventually the banger coughs and splutters into life and squeezes up the narrow driveway onto the freedom of the open highway, well the estate road anyway. After a bit of encouragement she rides again and continues her trait of never passing a petrol station by entering the first one she sees enroute to the MOT Centre!!

So we have left her in the capable hands of the MOT Centre. What will they find after an 18 month break? Who knows this is a 25 year old car after all.
