If you’re running an older car, then this time of year might well send a chill down your spine – the unexpected cost, the uncertain nature of the test and the possible work that might need carried out – yes, I’m talking about the MOT test. This is something I can gladly say that my […]
Well, according to my last post date, I haven’t filled up the car in 13 days. When I say filled up, I mean added any fuel at all. Whilst you could say that shouldn’t be surprising given that I’ve only managed 46 miles, it’s actually quite impressive. The reason being, most of those miles have […]
