Mini off at MOT!

[Philyc]

I've just dropped this beast off at the Mot guys.

 

 

It's been in my garage over winter and is only just out of hibernation.

 

I completely forgot about the new Mot regulations and am very nervous for some silly reason.

 

Have any of you lot had the new Mot done yet and did it throw up any funnies?

Sure itll be fine man.

[Philyc]

It's only gone and passed! With no advisories.

 

Get in!!

Excellent news. All you need do now is buy a 1977 logbook and vin plate and never worry about MOT again!

 

Looks a peach - please make sure you have very decent security on it Philly

[Philyc]

It's locked in a garage. Which is within a 12foot barbed wire fence patrolled by guard dogs and armed guys at the gates! The joys of being in the forces.

[Parky]

That’s pretty good, armed guards probably almost as good as a disc lock

Ah, a real one, a proper Mini. Refreshing. 

 

Is the colour an original colour? Looks a bit JCB-yellow from the photo. 

[Philyc]

I'm pretty sure it's the original paint, not sure what it's actually called.

 

My phone camera does weird things with colors, in reality it's not that bright

Very nice, congrats on the clean sheet.

 

Looks like 'Highway Yellow' (FMN).  It's a proper Mini colour for sure but I've only ever seen the odd one in it.  Is it a City E?

[Philyc]

It's a Mayfair as per all the paperwork I've got for it. 1989
