If you've had your driving licence for 2 years, you're presumably about 19 or 20 years old.

Have you ever considered celebrating by going to the pub with your mates like a normal 19 or 20 year old?

And you do realise that you could just put it through an MOT two weeks early?
I put mine through a month early last year because I was going away and didn't want to let it lapse.

You are correct, I am 20.

A few friends and I did go to the pub after visiting the museum but as this is the Readers Rides sub-forum, I didn't see the relevance of discussing such events, nor the meal that we also enjoyed, hence why such things were left out.

I am aware that you are able to do an MOT earlier but I have no reason to schedule it for an earlier date.

You speak the truth.

Last night I sought the meaning of the word "cheese". Google duly satisfied my quest for clarity and I now know that cheese represents a coagulation of the milk protein casein.

This has been most helpful. Although I am still awkward in social settings and struggle to recognise the existence of other sentient beings.

Didn't you just discuss above that you were between a rock and a hard place because of the 2-week-remaining MOT? This revelation would solve such a riddle!

It would normally make sense but due to work commitments I am unable to get to a garage until next week.

Evening,

To those that may be interested, NX51 passed the MOT. Yup, that's about as exciting this update will get.




Note: I understand that this hasn't been the most interesting vehicle to grace these pages but I have tried to make a 14y/o standard hatchback a little more interesting via my photos and stories. I appreciate not everybody wants to read every small update on NX51, no matter how I try and dress it up.

I still want to change my car in the not too distant future so unless something notable happens to the Skoda, the next update should be the concluding entry.

That is a very good question but, rather annoyingly, I still haven't found the answer.

More along the lines of "don't take the mick out of others' cars when you own a Zafira or a Suzuki Ignis"...

What's cars to do with it? I think its more the OPs tone.

I like Fabias used to own one, but the OP is sucking the fun out of then.
