72mk1escort Posted December 13, 2007 Report Posted December 13, 2007 The Escort is now MOT'ed My Dad rang the local MOT centre to see how busy they were and he said bring it down in 15 mins cause we've had a cancellation So we rushed out started it up went to the garage and put a tenner in it and my Dad drove it down there. The MOT'er could'nt believe how clean and original it was It passed with flying colours with no mention of any faults or anything being wrong mind you i dont think there would be after all the work ive done on it The brakes read up really high for drums: Fronts were: 230 & 230 Rears were: 220 & 220 Which the MOT'er said was really good for drum brakes Here are some pictures i took on my phone with my car in the test centre. So i now have a full years MOT I have sent my log book application off to the DVLA today and then when that comes back i will tax it for a total cost of £0 Anyway i hope you are all as pleased as me and i really cant wait for the summer because thats when im gonna get insured but my Dad will drive it occasionally over the winter months etc just so it gets used a little bit Also hoped you liked the pictures
