Default Auntie Rustics Mav

Hi guys, got a message from Auntie Rustic for you all. She’s had their local garage collect the Mav and MOT it, all it needed was a new battery. She knew the age of the battery because Rustic had labelled it with the date he fitted it in 2013. So the Mav flew through the MOT without actually needing anything. Roz wanted me to let everyone know as Rustic would of been so proud of his car.

Thumbs up Uncle Rustic lives on in his Maverick !

What a great start to the day, I am so pleased that it has passed it's first test without the greatly missed man to watch it go through - he must be chuffed if he is logging on here from up above.

I miss you Man, Ted xx

Believe it or not it’s the trucks second test without it’s master, it failed and needed retesting last year because head lights needed adjustment

So pleased the mav is still living at home, two businessmen wanted to buy it for peanuts. They would of mistreated it as a workhorse rather than the truck it is.

Incidentally Roz is doing fine too which I think is the most important part, hard time of year for Rustics family they’re all ok.

Glad the family is coping.
If they need to sell the Mav, I'm happy to be part of a syndicate.
