I still think there is a way, it might be a long shot, but ring me and we see.

There might be another way, ring me, I sent you my number by PM.

send us a message there.

I did by PM, but sur tis no good now anyway as you won't make NCT and suitability in time.

That electronic handbrake fault on the Avensis is often related to the DPF being full.

i reckon i'll be grand.

No, actually I think you won't be grand.
I'm just remembering back about 7 or 8 years ago I left everything till the last minute and after passing NCT the NTA managed to get me an appointment in Waterford just a day before my license expired so I had to drive to Waterford (2 hours) to pass my suitability test or else be hit with a late renewal fee.

I hate to be the bearer of bad tidings DMG but I reckon you will have to pay the Monkee late renewal fee upfront and then make a refund claim fer the 250 if you happen to pass suitability within the next 10 days.
