    Where's Your Motor Been

    DVLA's MoT history checker now lists the testing stations where past MoTs were undertaken. Not much use for those in Germany, Ireland or that have more money than sense.

          Good old days. My grandfather used to get his driving license renewal signed off by his doctor. Supposedly he used to take a bottle of very nice Scotch with him and return without it.

              Glad you now recognise that Northern Ireland is a part of Ireland.

              You can only get results for tests done in England, Scotland or Wales since 2005.

                Last time I was in Farnworth, it hadn't changed much.

                  I thought we all had new cars, and swapped them before they needed an MOT?
