8th of August it expired

I know it needs 2 ball joints and steering rack boots, so will get them on tomorrow and get it tested.

Thought it was end of september, perhaps not.

Teaches me to look at my douments more often anyway

About 3 years ago my Dad looked at his to find it had expired two months beforehand.
I've got the sticker from the certificate in the windscreen to remind me.

Not as lucky as me, I went to tax my car online last month and it said there didn't seem to be a valid MoT - not beliving it to be right I got the certificate - it went out of date in Febuary........

For some reason I though I'd had the car over 2 years and had it MoT'd in my ownership where in reality I'd had it just over 1 year and I've never MoT'd it.
I think I'm losing my marbles!

I've done that with insurance before. Had the wrong date in my head for when the renewal is... Wasn't the first time someone will do it, and certainly wont be the last.
