The XM goes in for MOT tomorrow morning...
The tension is killing me, honestly I'm a pile of trembling jelly and not feeling at all well
I hate MOT time

Best of luck Jim!
I totally understand how you feel. It is horrid MOT time, i'm a nervous wreck. Can't relax at all.
I'm sure it will be fine.

It did Mark
It was all the good wishes on here that did it. Plus the MOT tester used to have an XM...
And with nice comments from the tester too
Just a couple of advisories. Marginal handbrake and a slight exhaust blow..
I'm so relieved

Great stuff Jim - all that anxiety and grief can evaporate and any lingering concerns
can be considered more intently when the decent weather next year us again with us
so we just need batten down the hatches and see the way through the dark months!

Absolutely right Andrew
I can now spend time and money really making it a first-class XM now...

Last MOT I had on an XM, the Cobalt one, I had been admitted into Hosp. and I couldn't even get out of bed or use my legs. Mrs Dm took it early next morning and sent me a text to say it had passed.
Talk about getting your priorities right.
Then it all went a bit Pete Tong, she went home instead of coming to see me...

Absolutely brilliant news Jim.
I had to text you earlier, it was on my mind how it would do
