The Uno lives, another six months...

 It’s the six monthly Warrant Of Fitness, road worthiness inspection, time again. Seems like just last month when I got the last one! Where did the last six months go?

It was quite busy, and a nice day, so I sat outside near where the verdict is delivered. I was actually expecting them to find something and noted other car faults while I waited;

• ABS light on – Well that won’t happen to a non ABS’ed Uno


• Tyre problems – Plenty on the mighty Yokohamas so no worries there


• Jammed or wonky electric window and central locking? – No electric windows, no central locking


• Steering joint – The bushes are a bit creaky but alignment etc seems OK so maybe…


• Rust – H’mmm thats apparent is the bottom of the passenger door but…

Then out it comes, the inspector jumps out checklist in hand… oh dear… then turns and starts scraping off the old WOF sticker!

The Mighty Uno got through with no problems. Barring accidents (or Lotto wins), seems I’ll be pedalling it for another six months…
