Well, it was bound to happen! Having owned my 4/4 for 13 years and 42k miles, there was eventually always going to be an issue at the annual MoT test!

It happened today!

A blocked windscreen washer nozzle.

My fault for not checking properly.

ps Great to see Henry at Berrybrook this afternoon, albeit representing his new venture.

Fortunately, the MoT does not demand exterior door handles!
