The pass was never really in doubt but it is a big day for an old car.
Advisory for a coolant leak and I was kindly handed a 11mm socket to tighten a bolt that holds the adjustable steering wheel column - I'd noticed this had worked its way loose and kept meaning to mention it to Tom.
The examination hadn't got off to the best starts when the examiner was looking for a non-existent starter button - "It's old but not that old, mate - I, II, III for ignition"
For the second time in as many weeks, the car was praised for the immaculate state of its underside.
The 4 month layup at Lake View has clearly not harmed the car and the examiner expressed surprise that it was in regular use - "I thought this one would be parked up in Granada Studios or something". I didn't know GTV studios had a car museum but I appreciated the sentiment.
