  • 09 plate, flew through MOT and super low emissions (1.8 petrol)

    Put the old girl through her first MOT since my ownership and was very pleased with the results.

    9-1/2 years old 86,000 miles

    Obviously passed.

    1 advisory which was slight corrosion to the nearside rear brake disc which is a ring about 1/4" around the outside edge (loads of meat on pads so may change discs at next pad renewal).

    But was the emissions results that surprised me the most.

    Both Fast idle test & normal idle returned the lowest readings I have seen.,

    CO showed 0.00% (max allowed 0.20%)
    HC showed 0 PPM (max allowed 200 PPM)

    Changed plugs 6 months ago and always run on Shell V Power so guess this helps.

    Good indicator the engine is running well even after all these years.
