Hi ya Sam

[shiplee123]

First trip out in the bus today down to the mot center

 

[shiplee123]

Silly really but was a bit nervous tbh!

Not driven her properly before and didn't know what was gonna happen at the mot

 

[shiplee123]

Drove lovely !
Was really pleased !

Up on the ramp and the guys had a good going over her :shock:

 

[shiplee123]

Pissing down with rain today , couldn't have chosen a worse day to take the bus out for the first time!

Anyway I got it

She's got an mot !

Congrats on the mot, always a big relief when it passes eh!

 

[shiplee123]

Squirt , I hate the first mot when I buy a new motor!
The funny thing is when I buy a modern motor it don't interest me and I let the garage sort it!

This bus has had hours n hours spent on her so had no reason to fail .
But u never know !

Huge huge relief arty0049:
