    Just a quick question: what sort of chav scum drives round in an unsafe car with no insurance and no MOT?

    tell the lazy stupid bitch to walk, before she kills someone, preferably herself.

    This is surreal. I'm beginning to suspect that AT's threads are some sort of fiendish wind-up.

    Just open the bonnet and pull the earth lead off the battery or some othet important lead. Tell her the car won't start as its related to some of the faults that need fixing as part of an MOT.

    1) She has to take the bus
    2) She gets her car fixed and MOT'd or walks.
    3) Shop her to the Police

    Sneaky but effective.

    I used to enjoy visiting King bee records in Chorlton. I shall no longer be visiting, there are too many clapped out old bangers there being driven by nutters for my liking!

    Her dad has now agreed to take the car in for an MOT next week, I am so we are assuming he is paying for it :).

    I assure everything I have said on this thread is true :).

    As regarding my car the engine may be a bit warn but its not smoking and the car itself is perfectly safe. A rattle does not make a car unroadworthy :).

    A certified MOT tester checked my car out for safety one month ago :) I told him to replace any shocks, brakes or steering parts if they needed doing, he said everything was in good working order, the only thing wrong with my car is a bit of surface rust and the camshaft problem:)

    I believe my car is probably a lot more road worthy than a car that than a two year old car that has done 40,000 miles, never had an MOT and been neglected in the service department.

    She finally got the MOT sorted she finally realises what danger she was in when the machanic showed her the none existant rear break pads.

    They said the suspension wasn't that dangerious but was an MOT failure point so fixed it. However they issued an advisory because her chassis is starting to rot and told her to sell before the next MOT as too much welding will be required to make it worth while.

    So if see a W reg Reg Ford Ka be for sale be cuatius :p:
