180 passed its MOT with only and advisory
Well chuffed!

- Offside rear brake pipe slightly corroded.


Not bad for a 10 year old car!

My mechanic who put it through said when he looked at the pipe it was very slight and really shouldn't have even warranted an advisory!

Had its service today too so should be reet for a while yet

Treating it to a decat and scorpion centre section and some MK2 11 spokes soon and then ill give it a proper detail!

Like the ZS life ATM!

Mine was the same passed with flying colours only needed 1 Tyre which I didn't mind. Not bad considering the vectra costs me loads each year.

My car failed on that exact pipe so best to get it done as it is pretty common from what I hear and well done on the pass.these cars just seem to be quite happy come mot time.

Yep the Vectra is one hell of a car and love it to death, won't sell until I have to, but it costs every M.O.T time. However I do fix everything including advisories.
