The new, new, new MOT certificate

<nods> The kit car is SORNed. It's a summer car. For top down, music
loud, wind in hair runs to the sun but there are only half a dozen or
so days in a year that I'm likely to do that. But I keep the option
there, to MOT, tax and insure it each year. Costs me less than £200.
I'm starting to begrudge that when if there was a plate system then I
could simply swap it.

But that doesn't fit in with a nice system of regimented categories so
agreed it's unlikely to be seen in the near future.

 

Aye, it's not unusual. We can't quite manage it though, as with two
cars as well as the bike any two out of three may be in use at any
time.

It irks me that I'm now having to pay higher insurance than in the UK,
just because it's (sensibly) not tied to age, but just whether you've
been driving for more than ten years. Bit of a bummer, though, to go
through all the 'paying far too much 'cos you're young' years in
blighty, then come over here just when it was getting cheap.

So swings/roundabouts, etc.
