Anyone know an understanding MOT place as close to Goole/Howden as possible please?

Preferrably one that has a similar allergy to cats that I do smile

Thanks in advance.

Sadly not around that area, but Porscheuro may be of assistance?

My local garage is Rossmoor garage.

He has been excellent with all my cars I have had. Japanese imports, German tanks etc.

I'm sure he will be happy to help. He is doing my car at moment, as well as some work on it. Peter is the guy who oens it.

It's not the care and looking after I'm too worried about. It's the allergy to felines if you know what I mean hehe

M18 area would be ok. The car should be absolutely fine ... apart from the odd "Reward if found" poster biggrin

I heard 8 out of 10 customers preferred him, but don't let it out of the bag.

Agree.

Amazing how naive some people are...discussing such things on a public forum.

I prefer to take my cars to testers known to be strict.
That way I know they are safe and roadworthy.

No one has mentioned anything about "bent' Richard, until you just did.

I'm just having a laugh and a giggle with a little play on words. Some people have mentioned that they may know some good places with friendly service and I am sure they will privately email me, as indeed some have.

And for the pious amongst us, I know my car is perfectly safe and road worthy thank you and would not wish any one to scrimp on checks regarding roadworthiness and safety. You may be missing the whole point of my post, which has nothing to do with safety smile

Mind you, if you need to wait for the yearly MOT test to find something is wrong with your motor, well, that's your prerogative. Mine gets gone over with a fine tooth comb a little more regularly than that.

Ah what a totally predictable response.
But of course I NEVER spend anything on maintaining my p & js in top condition, year round. rolleyes

If you think that obeying the vehicle construction and use laws is pious, then that is your prerogative.

You suggested that I may be not too bothered about the safety of my vehicle. I am simply pointing out that this is not the case in any way shape or form.

From the tone of your post I presume you follow every single law of the land to the letter with no deviation whatsoever. For that I commend you.

Are you the chap that had a go at me about cyclists once?

Ah yes, you are.

It is obvious that you do not particularly like me, whereas I, not having ever met you, cannot really form a justifiable opinion. Let's leave it as agreeing to disagree on certain points shall we without disrupting the harmony of the forum smile

You do have a nice looking car I'll give you that.
