Went online to tax the zed yesterday for it to come back with a 'there is no mot on record for your vehicle' message, oh, I thought, better check the mot only to find it ran out 3 weeks ago

!!! I could've sworn it wasn;t due til next month, but hey ho whizzed to the mot station today and came out with a shiny new mot

all clear for another 12 months

Really easy to forget about the MOT! My mate got done for having not having his and he had no idea lol, 3 points and £60 or something like that.

Would be helpful if you could get a reminder...

It's not endorsable ... No points, just a fine.

Oh yes, youre right now that I think back. When he told me about it on msn he told me about a speeding fine too, so the points were for that (he confused me at the time and I thought that he meant he had lost his license because he implied he had gotten 3 points per thing within his first year of driving). But yeah it turned out to just be 3 for the speeding, so you are 100% correct!
