i got mine off ebay that was £30 posted, precat too worked a treat as my emmisions were too high

hey look at all these from north wales didnt think there was any!

off the top of my head, it sounds like he knows about the belts going on the CS's, and is looking to empty your pockets, sounds electrical, ive blown an engine and you know full well its gone!

yeah your ok to drive to any mot station aslong as its booked in, just depends if you can be arsed with the hassle of probably getting pulled up about it. im goin into the station later to produce my insurance iv printed off that screen in my previous post to see what they say about it...

NEWS. Why you need an MOT certificateIt is generally an offence to use on a public road, a vehicle of testable age that doesn’t have a current test certificate, except when: taking it to a test station for an MOT test booked in advance bringing it away from a test station after it has failed...

yeah your allowed, your current one is running untill the 22nd therefore doesnt expire untill then, although good idea getting it ready for the mot before its due unlike me haha

what company does recovery for £40?

yeah still chuffed with the price but the car was sat for at least 6 months without movement and the last time i looked at the catch it was rusted and getting stuck real bad so all good :)

i know 100% it is legal to drive to and from an mot station, its driving to and from the garage for work thats the problem. and i will be chip ill look into it.

well yours was 465 for belts and water pump mine was 499.99, not much difference but you got more work done than me, aparently they were trying to get hold of me the day i took it in but i must have given them the wrong number but it got done also they have fixed my bonnet catch :) not sure but...

when i got stopped i had the reciept for the work on the passenger seat in the car. it was booked a month ago lol i had insurance but they said it doesnt matter you can only drive to and from an MOT station. which seems to be a very grey area as people say you can and you cant. people saying im...

you git! got it cheaper than me and i was chuffed with mine :P

i was waiting for one of these. i was insured it just did not come up, cannot get tax without mot cant get mot without the work from renault. i wasnt paying £400+ to get it taken by a recovery company. as some said they thought that you could go to the place of work which i thought made sense...

mines now had the work done, both belts and water pump plus coolant :) reading over the reciept replace timing belt, water pump, aux belt quoted £499 and underneath a side note 44.86% discounted lmao it shows parts price list and all of them have also been discounted, i looked over the car and...

well all done and dusted, got pulled on the way home for no ins/tax/mot, managed to persuade the coppers i had insurance through my dads buisness (which i do) so i got a producer for that and escaped points and a £200 fine thank god, payed fees at the side of the road to a local recovery of...

mine went in today to get the work done so i think i managed to get it, picking it up at 4 clock tomorrow :) i think with some dealers you could probably still get away with this

i found this out 2weeks ago passing in my daily that had run out back on the 5th jan, got pulled over no MOT £60 fine, abit s**t but i was expecting a recovery van, i thought having no MOT was pretty bad. think thats why i have worried about this, in 5 years iv only been pulled over late at...

i did find it quite bizzare that folk were telling me to just do it haha as iv seen other people get so much abuse :P i insured it this morning and took it, no cops or anything so got there with no hassle just a noisy uncomfortable drive :)

i thought so, it would be stupid if you couldnt take it to get repaired.

just spoken to my brother and he says that if you tow using an A-frame or similar the car can be classed as a trailer? longshot haha?

jeez such a harsh penalty for a harmless offense! im trying to get hold of a trailer now one of my mates knows a friend with one so he's going to see if i can borrow it, fingers crossed! i would just rebook this but i managed to get the renault fixed price belt change and water pump for £499...

will they charge extra for that? or is it more a case of how much lol

yeah thats what its going there for to get the belts, and cv boot done which it failed on mot, also has an airbag light and emmisions light up but i will get them taken off when it actually goes for the mot.

19 when i got mine and now 22 loving it just as much as when i first got it just with cheaper insurance :D

i was thinking that, if i do get stopped just say its hoing to renault for the work and mot?

also recovery trucks around here take the mick. they will charge me near £200 if not more, is towing an option?

its about a 10 min drive on the A55, really dont want to risk it now :( will have to see if i can get a trailer or something sorted thanks guys

hi guys im stuck at the moment. the car has been off the road since the end of summer, while off the road mot has run out and tax. the car failed an mot, its booked into renault to get work done am i actually aloud to drive the car to the garage just insured? i thought i would be ok but my...

yeah i just hope i dont get a phonecall or a suprise when i get there, the guy did do a deal though when i spoke to him he origionally said near 600 just for belts i think and i mentioned the fixed price and sorted it all for me. i really hope it stays at 499 because i want to get my turbo...

think its just the way it is unfortunately, nicer the car the more they sting you :(
