The 330 ci sport went through the test today, sticky caliper and a bust rear shocker.
I already had pads and discs all round and rear shocks to go on and he did all of this for £170 including the test fee.
Ive been going to him for over 15 years and for the basic stuff he is great. :cool: :cool: :cool:

It's normally a sticky caliper and a broken spring :D

My E46 just went through a MOT as well last week with 1 advisory, a wiper blade, I can live with that. :D

So he should.

How many dangerous cars are on the road due to dodgy MOT testers?

Nothing different of any significance that I can see, except for a bit more well deserved persecution of diesels.

Not much change really, this one is interesting....

"brake pad warning lights and if brake pads or discs are missing"

The second half, pads or discs missing?? I mean, really, WTF??
