 That MOT feeling. - midlifecrisis
'Er indoors little Getz has just passed it's MOT. There's always that uncertain feeling while you wait. I take it to a little Indy and always get great service. MOT and service for £80. Had a look and all the hinges greased (only went in for a minor service, but they always do the full works). When I got home I checked the paperwork and found it had initially failed...a bulb wasn't working! (That'll teach me to check more than the tyres). They replaced it and never even mentioned the fault. Always makes me feel the work has been done properly with that kind of service.

We were going to replace the Getz last year with a Focus before Gormless Gordons financial skills took hold. I'm glad we didn't now as the Getz has always sailed through it's 3 MOTs and has never needed anything but servicing and a few tyres. However, she's making noises again about needing a bigger car to carry the kids. I haven't got the heart (or bravery) to tell her the money has gone on the Audi!
