I would not have thought that too terrific McM - or is this tongue-in-cheek bitter sarcasm?

Cars are fine until they conk and need a medical. Not cheap to run these days unfortunately

"Passed MOT, but needed replacement windscreen and three new tyres."

So ... failed then?

I noticed a small chip on the screen and asked them to check it out together with the tyres. Unfortunately although the chip could have been filled it was in direct eye-line of the driver. One of the tyres was illegal and two others were completely borderline.

I can understand why people even take their cars in for an MOT with such obvious failures like tyres.

that said I can't understand anyone that doesn't check their tyres regularly and replace them before they become illegal, it's your life they are keeping safe.

My car is on the blink too!!

Needs a new camshaft whatever that is and everyone keeps saying why not buy a new car!!

A new camshaft!!!

Yep, time for a new car! if the cam shaft is that worn there is likely massive wear in the rest of the engine.

I asked the questions before the MOT so it wouldn't fail on those points. The garage is very obliging especially because they supplied the car and have done all servicing since new.
