Pink Slip

[Jimbo2000]

hey all.

never had to get a pink slip before as previous cars have been newer, got a 95 gtst, should i go to someone specialised or just joe shmoes garage, whats involved?

with a pinkie they just test stuff like blinkers, brakes, tyres, lights etc etc... just to make sure the car is "roadworthy"...

it takes all of 10-30 mins and you can stand there and watch so basically any average mechanic will do as long as you feel you can trust them (eventhough you can watch them).

Does that help?

thanks bud,

do they take it for a drive?

[DJ984]

nah, usually they do the brake test where they accelerate then hit the brakes to see how efficient they are...

If they havn't got enough room in the driveway they might take it down the road to a quiet street or whatever to do this but i'm sure they'd let you go if u wanted
