  1. Had #MOT (compulsory #vehicle inspection) for #GolfGTI this week (first one since I got it last year)

    Took slightly longer than my previous #cars - there are twin exhausts and both must be tested!

    Passed with 0 advisories and very good emissions test - only 18ppm of #hydrocarbons which is very good as it means #petrol is being used as much as possible to power the engine rather than going out of exhaust unburned - just as well with price of the stuff at the moment (as well as #environment impact!)

    I fitted new #sparkplugs last November, replaced the air filter and did oil service which looks like it has paid off - am going for 6 month oil changes as widely recommended for #EA888 engine ( helps keep timing chain in good condition longer)

  2. *Two* USA folk on FB #GolfGTI group asking where the best place to keep their #pistol is in their car (I guess these attract more of the wrong sort of attention over there?)
