Martin, according to the government website, the MOT expired this year and not last! Have all the 2019 and 2020 advisories been addressed, and is there anything else that you think it might need for a new MOT? Thanks.

Regards, John.

I noticed that too

Might be worth getting it MoT'd to make a sale easier IMHO. I'm always surprised at how cheap non turbo 850s are - absolute bargains IMHO.

Hi John

Apologies - I meant to say that the last MOT that it passed was in Dec 2020. Before the pandemic, we were using it for local trips out and worked perfectly OK. In the past, when it was our main car, we have driven it to France and to Scotland and other places around the UK. The pandemic reduced our general car usage - we have another car - so we were finding that we were not using it as much and hence SORNED it. The advisories have not been addressed. As it has not been used much this year, the battery would need to be replaced.
