| The MOT Test: 2005-09 |
|
Beware - most modern garage hoists are only JUST narrow enough to fit the Ten. | |
| Jun 05 | After some deliberation, I put AYD56 in for the MOT test this month. It was really a test of what I had done so far and I didn't really expect a pass. It was most pleasing to find that the brakes worked and pulled up fairly evenly all round. Also that the headlights had been properly aimed (I did it by eye !) |
| Jun 05 |   The only failure points were the front drag-link ball joint (which I hadn't spotted) and the offside king-pin (which I had spotted). See Steering & King-Pins |
| Jun 05 |   But after these two small jobs, here is the MOT certificate - together with the last Certificate from 1977. Mileage = 78,886 and the Tax Disc - back on the road after 27 years ! |
| Jun 06 | Sailed through the MOT this year - mileage 79,921 Brakes 62% on the Tapley meter - nothing needed doing |
| Jun 07 | Sailed through the MOT this year - mileage 83,327 Brakes 62% on the Tapley meter - nothing needed doing |
| Jun 08 | Sailed through the MOT this year - mileage 84,292 Brakes 65% on the Tapley meter - nothing needed doing |
| Jun 09 | Sailed through the MOT this year - mileage 85,549 Brakes 60% on the Tapley meter - nothing needed doing |
