Another MOT pass for the saloon..

75driver · 31st July 2016, 20:56

Well, didn't really have much to do this time, other than sort out a number plate light, and have an iffy front bearing changed.

Asked the MOT man if he would fail the tourer (with xenons) for not having HLWs.
He said he wouldn't, cause he's more interested in making sure that a car is safe to drive, rather than worry about a set of HLW. 😄
On the other hand, he said, the same couldn't be said for other testers. 😣
I love consistency...😁

Congrats! I wish mine was as un-bothered about HLW...

MSS · 31st July 2016, 23:04

Congratulations!

What's an HLW?

Thanks for comments above.
HLW - headlight washers.

Two passes in a week.
Very happy.😄😄😄😄

Great when they pass but keep them in fine fettle shouldn't be a problem year on year.
