Next Week I Will Be Booking Our Car In,

for its annual MOT,

for anyone not familiar with the term, in the UK once a car is three years old (four years in Northern Ireland) it must be tested each year to check it meets road safety and environmental standards, this Ministry of Transport test is commonly known as an 'MOT' this means that government approve mechanics examine you vehicle to make sure it is in a road worthy condition, and if you have decided to save yourself a few pounds and service the car yourself it is done properly, which brings me on to the above video, during the week I often watch the YouTube channel, and this one titled Just Rolled In compiles video evidence of just how bad some well intentioned owners can be, trying to be a mechanic for the day to save a few dollars in the US or pounds in the UK the video was sent in by mechanics from the USA, but as sure as the rising sun the same howlers will be just as common in the UK, looking at the above I am happy to let the experts play with our car next week, even if it results in a big bill!
