No, you've got this all wrong Maninder. You put your car in for its MOT and it fails on front struts, springs, brake plates, brake discs/pads and droplinks. The garage tells you that the repairs will "cost more than the car's worth".

You then write a despairing post announcing that your trusty CDT will be going to the crusher because you're fed up with the expense of maintaining it. You express interest in a shiny Jaguar only a few years old, pointing out that it will be company for the one you own already. A debate then commences about how wonderful Jaguars are.

It really won't do Maninder having the foresight to book preventative maintenance with a local, experienced club member and then claiming perfection at the MOT bay.
