I have spent a thoroughly enjoyable hour this afternoon watching the Xantia perform faultlessly for it's MOT, almost as good as watching your first born performing in there first school play. And to top it all my workhorse BMW 5 series followed suit!

Its always a good feeling when your car passes first time

Excellent news Ian...

My Activa did the same sort of performance but I never stay to observe.

I've not observed an MOT now for many years..

bad timing to have to do two cars at the same time though. What if they both failed?

I always stay and watch

I find it enjoyable seeing the old girl been put through her paces and come out with flying colours at the other side

I always stay with mine during an MOT, if i dont go to the Citroen indy then they often need help finding things. It takes them a while to find the bonnet pull on the XM etc.

I remember going with our CX for an MOT, that was quite amusing to watch the mechanic tyr and find the switches.
