I have just had a puncture repaired by KwikFit.
A friend said not to do a long motorway journey in the car because the tyre

take it down the Post Office to get my tax, but for the last few years
they've been giving the form back to me rather than keeping it.
What's the point in trying to combat mileage fraud, if they don't bother ...

Ok , so if you have a month or less left on your existing MOT you can take

I'm about to chuck out my gf's Scorpio estate. At least, maybe. It will
be broken for trivial items of eBay-friendly type, such as the keyfob
