Hermit Posted July 5, 2009 Share Posted July 5, 2009 In case it helps in finding one, the cat off a TT Soarer would also fit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jellybean Posted August 3, 2009 Share Posted August 3, 2009 (edited) methanol what is this.mines a non tbo standard exhaust and emmissions are too high!! Maxol's E85 http://www.maxol.ie/maxol-bioethanol-e85.html My NCT is in October, last time it failed due to reg plate 5mm too small, wouldnt even mind but the visual re-test was done from over 7 meters away, they must have Bi-noc-ulars for eyes First thing when the car rolled in at a side profile, he ran over with the measuring tape to the rear, and after that they had 4 mechanics on the car, and only 4 where working at the time Every other car only had 1 mechanic testing it, I am all for safety but I dont like when they go out of there way to fail u, bunch of SOB's Edited August 3, 2009 by Jellybean (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Suprab1 Posted December 11, 2009 Share Posted December 11, 2009 My supra jst passed a couple of weeks ago. Put irish plates on little over a year ago and nct'd it in mullingar they only gave me a year and cracked my side skirt. Anyway passed again this time in athlone and looking at the sheet my breaks, shocks and most other things done better this time round (all the same parts) i think nct is a joke.
