According to that, my Cortina will die in 4 years time😬🤣

At least you got 4 years! 🤣

It was the Sandero that got me, given that it's not that old really.

Not encouraging.   The 'major defect' was a sticking caliper and worn disc.

Fixed of course.  They knew about it when I dropped the car off for it to be done but they always MOT it first to see what else might be thrown up then fix everything at one go.

Oh, that's handy.

They must reckon the Corolla will last forever.

yeah had a quick play with the tool, it works solely off the DVSA's database, which means you can stick @hairnet's still New Zealand registered postie bike into it 

but no Northern Ireland cars or vehicles that dont have any MOT history/DVSA database entry

quite amusingly the DVSA's database still thinks @dollywobbler's Invacar has a 10L engine still LOL

but handy in that I did not know the DVSA's database recorded engine size like this

however knowing that it does, im not surprised that it still says 10L, because the DVSA database does not really sync with the DVLA's one for the most part, I mean for example the DVSA still think that JBY503J is Orange which is hilarious LOL

 

also TTW991R breaks the tool entirely LOL

The Fabia one doesn't factor in current mileage, at 65k. Would be nice if you could add that bit in by hand.

The one for the Sandero does seem a bit pessimistic, mind you.

more bollocks than palace of westminster

Was just reading up about Terry Waite's cousin who was one of the samples on Little Fluffy Clouds and found this article on the BBC website about oor Tel:

Dude is a right bad ass Rambo muthafucka, what do they teach at the Anglican church? 

I bet someone working at the BBC in 2005 still chuckles to themselves about that one.

Also read the replies. More of these machines live then I thought.

He comes out of his yard, and walks up and down for 5 minutes checking nobody is watching him first.
