As you've heard before, our Pug man in the village looks after the fleet.
Just had the ATV checked over and taken for its biennial ITV (MoT).
Can't be arsed to trundle (top whack is about 60 kph) all the way to the test station, which is about an hour by car, so would take an age on the Linhai.
So after a check they put it on the grua (breakdown truck), take to pre-booked test and return.
I just went to the garage and collected it and paid!!!
That's the point of the WAFFLE.
How much, says her with purse.
Call it fifty cash.
Sold. :thumbup:
The paper showing the test pass included a receipt from test centre of 21.52 euros.
Our chap might only have taken five minutes to check it over, but the grua, if it did the journey same speed as me in 5008, that's two hours return, but he also had to drive ATV through the flow-line test which must be at least ten minutes.
All that for fifty beans; can't accuse them for ripping off their wealthy English clients, eh? :clap:

This blinking weather don't help with enticing prospective purchasers of the Zero. :thumbdown:
To get through IVA in the UK it had to have wipers and washers, but with no lid or hood, not envisaging test drives for punters in the rain; tad scary too, with wheelspin and back end trying to get away. :shock:
Yesterday and today have been the first totally dry days for a month; and more rain forecast from tomorrow onward. :(
Nice weather for ducks! :lol:
Must now prod the "agents" I've got scouting for potential buyers, in the hopes the weather will improve. :eusa-think:
