MOT Passed first time with no issues!

I couldn't believe it. I felt strange just taking the key and walking out. Where was the list of fixes, the advisories?

Nope, it's all just fine. Woohoo!

To celebrate, here's a picture of the office last week

Yep, blue van gets another year of life

Was indeed the Humber Bridge. I was heading north and stayed there for a couple of days, very nice. Forgot to pick up my levelling ramps though  mad

Re: MOT Passed first time with no issues!

I've owned my Scudo since 2007 (how those 14 years have flown!!    yikes   ), it wasn't quite 3 years old when I bought it - so every MOT on my van has been done while the van is in my ownership. My van has never failed an MOT - passed every time. Only the occasional advisory.

Says a lot for quality Italian engineering!    smile    smile    smile

Your van was built in sevel nord {Nr Valenciennes} northern france along with all the Peugeot and Citroen vans at the time and is mostly a French product with a Fiat badge on it..............
So were all the eurovans their based on ie 806, synergy, ullysee  zeta and the later versions too

Badge engineering.......Sorry

The same is true of the bigger vans ie Boxer, Relay  Ducato which are all made in sevel sud which I believe is in northern Italy............

Still says a lot ............ Because French etc


Another sad fact is if you buy one of the newer versions of a Vauxhall it's probably a rebadged Peugeot or Citroen and built in a French factory ..............
An example is the Combo started out as Corsa bits then for a couple years a full blown rebadge of a Fiat Doblo and now quickly it became a Citroen Berligo with Vauxhal alleged lookalike bits at the front.......
