Embarrassing m.o.t fail.

... they were past it,with the thread material showing on the near side tyre...

That's why you took it easy on the Xmas cruise then Steve

No Brian, I'd have to give the big lad a pass on that. I was just happy to see excellent brake test results!

Tony.

Yes I was pleased with the brake test as well,they are working superbly after you worked your magic on them.
They had a bit more use today as i was on my own and they're feeling better than standard now with good feel to them,more so when they're warmed up .
The hand brake test turned out good as well,quite even on the test rig.

I'll take an MOT fail with tyres over an emissions failure as it's an easy fix.

Its extremely hard to spin the wheels in the dry unless you abuse it ...great fun in the wet though with no traction control Continentals all round. she will have Michelin Pilot Sports next time which is what I should have stuck with haven't liked the conti's since they went on

Steve knows where I planted the blame on wearing out his tyres Niall. Something about following a crazy Welsh man around the valleys.

Also exactly what I said to Steve this morning Niall, wet weather eats tyres worse than dry if you're not careful.

Totally agree but the wet weather brings the child out in me .... I just can help it Tony

Me too mate but thankfully the TC saves me from being to bad. God know what would happen if I turned it off, I suppose tyres wouldn't be too huge a problem though.

After posts about certain tee shirts recently, Shirl just popped up with this diamond, and this is aimed at no one person directly, but I thought I should share.
