After being invited to do a little road trip to Yorkshire, we finally decided to get some back seats in the van, it would mean that the others involved wouldn't have to hire a car and make it easier to travel with more people in the future too. I wanted a bench-type seat that could be used as a bed too and we snapped up an…
That time finally arrived, the first MOT for Neo! We went for a pre-MOT check with Mass Motors, as they were so helpful with a previous issue, and they gave us a list of things to resolve before taking Neo for the MOT - all relatively minor and usual MOT stuff.
