I’m an MOT tester and we are shut, a few other testers I know are also closed and a lot of dealership techs I know nationally are. If somebody phoned me and asked who was open locally for an MOT I couldn’t tell them! The motor trade has been told its workshop staff are key workers, funnily enough the majority of our local nuclear industry workers aren’t? Strange as a lot of people view vehicle techs to be either idiots, rubbish at their jobs or just out to take your money..... Fair play to anybody still open in the trade and hopefully your taking all the precautions needed and cleaning cars in advance of working on them as I’m not sure I’d trust that the owner had done it themselves in advance

'Marmite' Possibly one of the most famous 75 tourers produced! left the production line as the last of only Three Rover 75 tourers produced in Trophy Yellow. 48 hours later Longbridge closed. The last sold ordered 75 Tourer. Paid for by the Phoenix Four and handed over by John Towers to the Warwickshire Northampton Air ambulance service as a Rapid Response vehicle
