I have a 2004 Diesel car, due to be MOTd in August. I'm wondering if it would be better to put it in before any new MOT is introduced, in May. Your learned thoughts would be most appreciated.
I'm not a novice to towing by any means but I changed the van last year to a continental van, a Knaus Sudwind. The new van has a much longer A-frame than my previous UK built van and I struggle to get a decent nose weight.

My new car has Mirror-link to which I can connect my Android phone. I would like to know which is the best Sat-nav to download that I can use through Mirror-link. We often use CLs that are off the the beaten track so it would have to be one that stored maps. I would be grateful for any advice on this.
It is well documented how VW tried to evade diesel emissions tests, their man Oliver Schmidt receiving a 7 year jail sentance in US, but now it appears they have been testing emissions on humans and monkeys too. Wonder what else they have lied about?
